Istanbul is fascinating. If I had a flat to be furnished I would come here, and do a big shopping. Great decoration stuff here, and for the kitchen as well. Plenty of mosques. I like the ferry transport very much - they depart very often. A bit tiring are the vendors, shopkeepers, restaurateurs, waiters, everyone wants you to use their services, to enter their shop. Also Turkish cuisine is interesting - especially the variety of sweets.
