Taksim Square and Galata Tower

Main meeting point in Istanbul and center for night life. That's the first 2 pics. There is also a pedestrian shopping street that begins here. That is the third pic. The Galata tower, like Taksim is in the new town part of Istanbul, still on the European side of the Bosporus. The tower was originally built as an astronomical observatory. That is the 4th pic. The last picture is of an interesting guy busking with a violin at the tower while I had coffee next door.Weiterlesen
