Istanbul Sabiha highlights
A city where east meets west, Istanbul pulsates with stunning scenery, historical architecture and a unique culture.
-
Tourist attractions
Enjoy the incredible view on both sides of the city while crossing the Bosphorus Bridge, connecting Europe and Asia, or take a night-time cruise on the Bosphorus to see the bridge illuminated in imaginative style.
At dusk, enjoy a dazzling view of Istanbul from the restaurant at Maiden's Tower, built on a small island at the southern end of the Bosphorus. Take a ferry ride to the Prince Islands, a group of nine islands off the coast of Istanbul in the Sea of Marmara. The only available forms of transport on this mini archipelago are bicycles and horse carts. -
Leisure activities
Head to the Bağdat Avenue, a notable high street lined with brand-name shops and restaurants. Indulge in a hamam (traditional Turkish bath), where relaxation and cleansing are helped along by the use of steam rooms and aromatherapy.
-
Food
Turkish cuisine will be familiar to anyone who has ever eaten a kebab, but there is far more on offer in Istanbul than the globe-trotting doner. Kebabs come in dozens of variations, from the spicy adana to the aubergine-rich alinazik.
In the Galata area of the city you will find everything from kebab snack stalls to exclusive rooftop-terrace dining. -
Shopping
In a city where East meets West and old meets new, you will find almost every imaginable shopping experience. In New Istanbul is a scattering of modern shopping centres where just about anything can be bought.
The Old City is the place to go for a taste of authentic Turkish shopping, among the many traditional bazaars. The Grand Bazaar is the most famous, but prices here can be higher than in some of the smaller markets, so it pays to shop around. Remember that haggling is common here, so be prepared to spend a while debating prices with stallholders to get the best deals.
Many visitors return from their travels to Istanbul with a variety of flavours of Turkish Delight and at least one traditional rug.
