The mosques, bazaars, and Turkish baths of Istanbul could keep you happily occupied for your entire trip: an eyeful of breathtaking architecture here, a good-natured haggle over a carpet there. Kick your trip off at the awe-inspiring Sultan Ahmet Camii (Blue Mosque), which is visible from many points of the city. Stroll the Galata Bridge and stop by the Miniaturk Park to see its tiny artifacts. The Grand Bazaar has thousands of shops to browse, while the Egyptian Bazaar is a fragrant trove of spices and fruits.

Dialogue in the Dark invites visitors to leave the world‘s visual cacophony behind and to experience a completely non-visual world. Up to 10 people per group receive a short briefing and are introduced to the use of a long cane before embarking on their journey through darkness. The exhibition consists of a series of scenarios in complete darkness, such as a public park, a bustling city street, a food market, a boat or a cafe. Passing through these dark zones assisted by their visually impaired facilitator, they begin to explore the dark world with their other senses: sound, smell and touch. While visitors perceive everything in a completely new way their visually impaired facilitators provide support throughout the entiry tour, as to them this world is "visible". Depending on the size of the exhibition, the tour lasts 60 to 90 minutes.

Awesome experience of viewing history military campaigns encompassing conquest of Constantinople (present Istanbul) by the Muslims, the military campaign by Kamal Ata Turk for revival of Turkey after the WW-I, and then listen to the gallant tunes of the Mehtar Band along with the performance. An experience worth watching and remembering!!

Ferikoy Antika Pazari is located very close to Taksim Square and locals selling antique, jewellery, coins, longplays, etc where you can find very nostalgic items from 80's..No tourist traps, yet be ready to bargain with vendors...If you are looking for an interesting shopping experience on Sunday, this is the place to visit...

For me the best shopping centre in Istanbul. The place is nicely decorated, lots of plants and greenery. Very peaceful mall. There is also a fountain at the bottom of the mall. Easy access by metro (Stop Levant). The mall is in the business area of the city A lot of international brands such Gap, Mark & Spencer, Calvin Klein, e.g. There is also a cinema with several movies proposed at the same time and of course lot of café and restaurant. If you have to choose one Shopping centre, this is the most designated Mall that I recommend
