About Istanbul

Istanbul is a city where centuries of history meet a fresh wave of creativity. You’ll wander through ancient streets lined with Byzantine churches and Ottoman palaces, only to find yourself sipping third-wave coffee in a stylish café tucked between them. The Bosphorus is more than just a waterway—it's a symbol of the city’s split identity, connecting Europe and Asia in a way that feels both chaotic and completely harmonious. One minute, you’re bargaining for spices in the Grand Bazaar; the next, you're admiring contemporary art in Karaköy or catching a rooftop DJ set in Beyoğlu. Traditional meyhanes buzz with locals and travelers alike, while new culinary spots are redefining Turkish cuisine with bold, modern twists. Whether you're here for the layers of history, the food, or just the view from Galata Tower at sunset—Istanbul will surprise you, charm you, and definitely keep you coming back for more.
