İstanbul

À propos de İstanbul

Straddling two continents, Istanbul is one of the world’s most singular cities, with its historic peninsula, the Bosphorus and the Galata skyline. Yet nature is close at hand: the lakes and trails of the Belgrad Forest to the north, the beaches and streams of Şile and Ağva on the Anatolian side, and the Princes’ Islands offshore all offer real escapes. History, sea and forest meet here, and the cuisine ranges from fish sandwiches to world flavours.
