Istanbul















Much has been written about Istanbul. A good place to start would be the Wikipedia entry about the city. Our experience of it was mainly confined to historical sites, dialogue opportunities, and some really nice cafes. There's a more "westernized" nightlife in Istanbul, with bars, discos, and the like, but we didn't bother with it. The Bosphorus and Golden Horn provided lovely water views, and the architectural marvels, like the Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque, made for a vibrant, beautiful city.
