Taking a Stroll in Istanbul

There are various kinds of vacations. Beachy Thailand vacations, historic Rome type vacations, modern Vegas type vacations. Then of course is the walking city vacation. Some cities have reputations to be great places to explore on foot. London, Amsterdam and New York are some of them.

And then there is Istanbul. I can only call it the Walk through a city of civilizations and old war charm type vacation. This city deserves to be seen from the perspective of the slow pedestrian. Below are some of my stroll through Istanbul (ok ok many strolls) the sights and sounds of any great city can barely be captured through a small set of images, but what we can try is to give a simple glimpse, an appetizer, to convince you to go over there for the main course. 🙂
