Well, we reached! It's a long journey yet well worth it. The bags had arrived as well :)
We went straight to the hotel, freshened up and went for a walk along the Galata Bridge.
We went to the Spice Bazaar, walk around the Galata Bridge and had some coffee.
Stunning roof top view.
And the breakfast.
The picture says it all!
The video cannot even come close to replicating our experience here.
Had breaky said final goodbyes to
our Group then walked to see the
Ayasafya Grand Mosque which is
an Archectural Marvel
and the Topkapi Palace
Incredidble opulence and wealth
on display.
A 04:30h wake up call thanks to the call to prayer and a symphony of seagulls. First mission: get an onward train ticket for the sleeper to Sofia.
There are so many interesting buildings along the ferry ride on the Bosphorus. I have put a few here.
Explored Istanbul a complete day. Walked nearly 16 km. It is a pretty cool City with historical and modern stuff. Pretty Sure there is much more to see but leaving already for the Next adventure...
