"Istanbul Visit" Turkey by BillCampbell

I spent 15 nights at this very comfortable hotel, located in the Beyazit district, very close to the Sultanahmet attractions.

Restaurants under the Galata Bridge

The Eminonu area is at the junction of the Sea of Marmara, the Golden Horn, and the Bosphorus, so there is always something to do there that is associated with the water. You can take ferries, pleasure boats, walk along the shoreline, or dine at the very nice restaurants under the Galata Bridge.

Topkapi Palace

The main attractions in the Sultanahmet area are the Aya Sofya Museum (former mosque), the Sultanahmet Camii mosque (Blue Mosque), the Hippodrome, the Basilica Cistern, and Topkapi Palace.

• Pros:People are very friendly, peace-loving, helpful
• Cons:No cons
• In a nutshell:I can only speak for Istanbul, not all of Turkey, but I thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of my 2 week visit there.
