"Istanbul" Istanbul by tim07

Istanbul Travel Guide: 7,630 reviews and 19,467 photos

I spent a weekend in Istanbul, it's a modern, busy city with plenty of historic buildings & sights to keep you occupied for a few days.

My hotel was in the Sultanahmet area close to the Blue Mosque & Haghia Sophia, however the rest of the city was easily reached by tram.

Pros and Cons
