[Istanbul] Enjoy snapshots at City Walk

★Basic information about Istanbul
Istanbul is divided into the European side and the Asian side, each with its own unique characteristics and charms.
Due to this unique geographical feature where the continents are separated by the Bosphorus Strait, the city is a place where Eastern and Western cultures intersect, and you can enjoy the different atmospheres of each side of the city!

★Differences between the European side and the Asian side
This is entirely my subjective opinion, but
the European side has many new buildings and a beautiful, truly European feel to its streets.
On the other hand, the Asian side has many old buildings remaining, and it is an area where you can feel the daily life of the locals.
If you are looking to buy souvenirs, I think you can buy them cheaper on the Asian side!

★Recommended for walking around the city!
This time, I recommend walking around the European side!
There are many wide and beautiful streets, and many places where you can feel like you are in Europe with your bare feet.
The shutters are often decorated with colorful illustrations and graffiti, so they are sure to look great in photos!

★Recommended sightseeing spots to visit along with a city walk
Sultanahmet District
Iconic sightseeing spots such as Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, and Topkapi Palace are concentrated here, making it a must-see for history buffs.
This area is home to Byzantine and Ottoman Empire heritage, and has the charm of feeling the glory of ancient times.
Beyoglu and Galata District
A modern and vibrant area.
Istiklal Street is lined with shopping and restaurants, and at night the cafes and bars are bustling. The beautiful panoramic view from Galata Tower is famous as one of the most beautiful views of Istanbul.
Area along the Bosphorus
Luxury hotels, restaurants, and yacht harbors line the area, allowing you to enjoy a luxurious atmosphere.
Please take your time to enjoy a walk around the city of Istanbul!
