Hi! I’m Martin. I love travelling. I went to İstanbul on the 14th of July. It was incredible.

İstanbul preserves many


historic buildings, mosques, palaces and towers. I visited the Galata Tower, Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia and Topkapı
Palace. There are different means of transportation. I preferred the tram to see the attractions. I ate grilled fish
sandwich in Eminönü. I really loved it.

The weather was hot and sunny. I stayed at a five star hotel for 5 days. It was comfortable and not very
expensive.

I suppose Topkapı Palace is the most beautiful place in İstanbul because to me, it is an important structure, and it’s a
cultural miracle.
