    August 3, 2015 in Turkey ⋅ ☁️ 28 °C

    At 4:30 p.m., our Bosphorus tour began along one of the world's most impressive waterways. During the cruise, we enjoyed fantastic views of both the European and Asian sides of Istanbul. Along the shoreline, we spotted historic palaces, elegant waterfront mansions, and ancient fortresses. The views of Dolmabahçe Palace and the magnificent Bosphorus Bridge were particularly impressive. The constant movement of ferries and cargo ships highlighted the importance of this waterway. The combination of modern skylines and centuries-old history made the experience unique. New perspectives of Istanbul's mosques and landmarks appeared around every bend. The fresh sea breeze and pleasant weather made the trip even more enjoyable. On the Asian side, we gained a completely different impression of the city. As the sun slowly descended, it bathed the skyline in warm golden colors. The Bosphorus tour became one of the highlights of our stay in Istanbul from the very first day.Read more

    August 12, 2015 in Turkey ⋅ ☁️ 33 °C

    Today, we visited the famous Balmumu Heykeller Müzesi in Eskişehir, one of Türkiye's best-known wax museums. The museum was established by the city administration and features numerous lifelike wax figures from politics, history, culture, and sports. From the moment we entered, we were impressed by the realistic appearance of the figures. Many of the displayed personalities have played important roles in Turkish history and modern society. In addition to statesmen, we saw famous artists, scientists, and athletes. The figures looked so realistic that it almost felt like meeting the celebrities in person. It was fascinating to learn more about the lives and achievements of the people represented in the exhibition. The museum also offered valuable insights into Turkish history and culture. Many visitors took souvenir photos with their favorite wax figures. The exhibition was diverse and engaging for visitors of all ages. This visit became one of the cultural highlights of our stay in Eskişehir.
