The Bosphorus Strait is a natural waterway of significant strategic, economic, and cultural value. • Geographically Important: Connecting the Black Sea to the north and the Sea of ​​Marmara and the Mediterranean Sea to the south, it is the only access point for Black Sea countries to the open sea. It also serves as the natural dividing line between Europe and Asia, holding a crucial strategic position. The strait has been the subject of ongoing contention throughout history. • Significant Economic Value: As a vital shipping channel, hundreds of large ships transit the strait daily. In the first nine months of 2024, 31,161 vessels passed through the strait, a year-on-year increase of 7.1%. It is a crucial artery for the Black Sea countries' foreign trade, including oil transportation, and has generated significant revenue for Turkey through navigation. • Rich Cultural Heritage: Greek, Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman cultures converged here, marking the Asian terminus of the Silk Road. Goods, cultures, and religions from both the East and the West converged and merged here. Numerous historical sites along the strait, such as the Topkapi Palace, bear witness to the exchange and collision of civilizations. • Rich Tourism Resources: The strait's natural scenery and historical sites complement each other beautifully. Lush meadows and shrubs are interspersed with tall buildings and small houses, along with towering palaces and ruins of ancient castles from the Roman and Ottoman empires. Cruises offer a glimpse into the Eurasian charm of both sides of the strait, and the scenery is particularly captivating at sunset. • Convenient Transportation: Turkey has built numerous bridges across the Bosphorus Strait, such as the Bosphorus Highway Bridge. These bridges are not only marvels of transportation engineering but also landmarks of Istanbul, connecting Europe and Asia and facilitating cross-strait travel and transportation.

Very impressive, especially how the light shines through the hundreds if coloured glass windows, the tranquility amidst hundreds of tourists that people use to do their prayers.

Climbing the tower offers a 360-degree panoramic view of Istanbul. The queue takes about an hour, and I started queuing around 4 PM on November 13th. I managed to catch the sunset just in time, which was quite a rare treat! Although the price was a bit steep, I felt it was worth it.

Istanbul Riverside I said before that the Grand Bazaar is the big alley in Istanbul, and Istiklal Street is the Istanbul Riverside. On the first day, we went to Taksim Square with a group tour, and only had one hour to go shopping. Of course, we didn't go shopping enough, so we arranged our time here for the second day's free travel. We took the bus from the hotel to this area (it is said that the taxi price in Istanbul is expensive and there is traffic jam, because the traffic jam will be more expensive, so we chose to take the bus). We first went to the Rainbow Stairs, and then walked through a residential area to the nearby Carrefour. In the middle, we also went into a drugstore. The owner was very talkative and said that he had been to many places in China, and even to Tianjin and Hohhot. He was very kind. It was a mistake to go to Carrefour first. I bought a lot of things, which caused us to carry these things behind me. After buying snacks and souvenirs, we came to Istiklal Street, which may be the busiest pedestrian street in Istanbul. There were a lot of people on the day we went. It can be seen that not only foreign tourists came to visit, but also locals came to shop. There are large and small shopping malls, restaurants, jewelry stores, souvenir shops, and clothing stores on the street. The types of shops are very complete. We went to Pandora, Mado, St. Anthony's Church, a baked potato shop, a regular restaurant barbecue shop, a street stall barbecue shop, a candy store, many clothing stores, Watsons, two shopping malls... I don't know if I have said it all. I walked around for a whole day and went back when it was dark. I bought a lot of things and ate local special barbecue. Although I spent the whole day on this street and didn't go anywhere else, there are really a lot of food, drinks and shopping on this street. Although it's a bit tiring, I had a great time. The food is much better when traveling independently than when traveling with a group.

The starting point of the pedestrian street We will stay in Istanbul for two days. The first day is a group tour, and the second day is a self-funded group tour or a free tour. The first stop on the first day was Taksim Square. This square is a circular open space with some statues in the middle. However, this square is also a relatively large square in Istanbul. There are many pigeons in the square. Don't use others to feed them, because it costs money. Next to it is the pedestrian street, and the square is the beginning of the pedestrian street. We arrived too early and many shops were closed. We came again the next day and had a good look. There are large shopping malls, small supermarkets, jewelry stores, Watsons, and various places to eat. The pedestrian street is still very playable.

I recently visited Ankara Castle, and it was a great experience. The castle sits on a hill, giving amazing views of the city. Walking through the old stone paths felt like stepping back in time. The area is calm and has a few local shops and small cafés nearby. It’s a perfect spot for history lovers and anyone who wants to enjoy a quiet place with beautiful scenery.

Sultan Ahmed Square, the original Roman Arena. Because of its excellent location, most of the historical sites are near this square, so we walk back and forth several times a day. There are three monuments on the square, and there are shops, tea shops, etc. around it. You can sit on a chair and watch people coming and going.
