Overview

Istanbul is a city of chaos and paradoxes that somehow manages to exude an allure that every visitor cannot help being affected by. The beautiful Bosphorus, the remnants of empires and different cultures at every turn, the amazing food, and the youthful vigor of its younger population all make Istanbul wonderfully dynamic.
