Reading 36 Hours in Istanbul makes me want to visit that city! Just off of the pictures of how beautiful it is. And the restaurants it describes such as the Far Pavilions seem like the type of place for me! I would love to be a customer at the Ottoman coffee houses (being the coffee enthusiast that i am), and enjoy thick turkish coffee and cakes that i may have never experienced before. The whole scene of Istanbul and thought of being there, and sitting in the Opera houses enjoying Istanbul’s finest theatre entertainment gives me chills. I really want to visit this gorgeous city one day.
After reading 36 hours in Istanbul, I found it really interesting, I’ve really never heard about this place up until now, It has a great atmosphere of tourism a lot of several restaurants that have different types of entertainments. They also have a lot of meaning to it, some of the buildings been there for years and it brings warmth to the people. For example the Beylerbeyi Palace which is in the reign of Sultan Abdul Aziz which was built in 1863. I personally like places with history it makes it so much interesting to learn about it. The community is modern and up coming but one thing that won’t change is the effect that these places mean to people. I would love to go to Istanbul and explore it more and there different type of cuisines like in Tapasura where they have there own mix of presenting there fishes. Lastly I would like to visit 360 east where you can see the whole skyline. How beautiful would that be.
