Istanbul: An Amazing City

August 27, 2008 By: sukanyapaul Category: Travel No Comments →

Istanbul is a less visited city but a beautiful one I must say. Along with all my team mates, I reached Istanbul and was amazed by the beautiful locales of the place. We stood in front of the ferry and were watching the city as it revealed itself in front of us… it was just amazing! The next day we planned to visit the beautiful Prince’s Island.

The Prince’s Islands were simply beautiful!  We got off at the third Island to enjoy and chill out. But the place was unbelievably hot and even the hats were of no help.  However, lovely breeze would calm down the temperature sometimes.  I enjoyed travel by the horse drawn carriages as cars were not allowed on the island. Some of my tour-mates even used bicycles.  In this island, we found a small wooden hotel which offered accommodation to us. They played traditional music within the hotel which added to the ethnic décor of the place.

Another lovely place which I visited during my trip to Istanbul was the Sunset Mosque. While returning from the Sunset Mosque, we took a ferry to the city. While returning, the sun was about to set which gave a beautiful look to the skyline of Istanbul. Looking at the beautiful sky, we returned to the hustle and bustle of Istanbul.
