Day trip to Istanbul.

The colorful streets in Balat that I visited the next day had a petty bourgeoisie feel. I took a couple of photos and went to Independence Street, a branch of Shanghai Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street. You can try Moda's ice cream, which costs 70 li per ball, and the pistachio ones are the best. It’s only 90 Lira at the airport. Grandpa's chocolate is also recommended by everyone. It is relatively expensive. It looks good to buy some as a gift. I tried it and bought a mixed bag with various nut centers. I don’t know why Galata Tower is free of charge. I saved 30 euros. I had to queue for an hour and go up for 10 minutes just to look at the distant view. Fortunately, I didn’t get taken advantage of. The Turkish barbecue we ate next to us was pretty good and cost about 50 yuan per serving, based on the weight of the meat. The refrigerator magnets from internet celebrity stores are pretty good, they are handmade and each one is unique. There are two airports in Istanbul. The one we came to internationally is Istanbul Airport. It is in the north and there is another airport in the south whose name I can’t remember. There is no subway. I took the bus halfway, and then I ordered a car from Uber. I took the bus to get to the traffic jam. It’s hard to control. If it’s more expensive to call a taxi, just be more expensive.
