Stay in Sultanahamet - close to the action and full of winding cobbled lanes for the authentic atmosphere - can get great views of the Bosphoros as well! |
|  | Spice Market Visit the Spice Market as well as the Grand Bazaar - a bit more authentic - but still pretty touristy. If you can - go to the real market outside the Spice Market and see all the fresh fish and cheese - not to mention the buckets of leaches for sale in the "pet" market!! |
| | If its rainy there are plenty of palaces and mosques to explore inside - Aya Sophia or Topkapi Palace are must sees |
