Day 4. Taksim square, and spice market

Today's plans, visit the spice market, head to cheap clothes area, then get an old funicular and head to taksim square.
Probably try for basilica cistern while I'm at it. Think I will leave Galata tower until Sunday afternoon on the way to the stadium

Managed tram and funicular to tasking square, then strolled along istiklal CT where all the big shops are, all with 70% sales but with t shirts for 160 TL (£2.89) who am I to argue..cheaper than Primark lol.
Surprised to see so many police with riot shield and also lots of plain clothes wandering around (unless Joe public have pistols in their trousers lol).
Anyhow 1pm and found an actual Irish bar - no surprise really- so stop for a while then back over the river and head to spice market Czytaj więcej
