Our trip to Turkey was truly unforgettable! ❤️ We started our day with a traditional Turkish breakfast, filled with fresh 🥖 🧀 🫒 🫖 . Walking through the bustling streets of Taksim, we felt the vibrant energy of the city. The highlight was visiting the stunning Hagia Sophia, a breathtaking mix of history and architecture. In the evening, we enjoyed a relaxing dinner 🚢 along the Bosphorus, admiring the city lights. We also explored Fatih and visited beautiful temples. To top it all off, we tried the Ottoman sauna experience, which was the perfect way to unwind 🧖🏻♀️🧖🏻♂️ 😃Travel Tips: ✔️Start your day early to avoid crowds, especially at popular sites like Hagia Sophia. ✔️Always carry cash. Many local places don’t accept cards. ✔️Wear comfortable shoes for walking, especially around Taksim's busy streets. ✔️Don’t miss the authentic sauna experience. It’s a relaxing way to dive into Ottoman culture. #Travel #Turkey #Explore #Wanderlust #Travelgram #Instatravel #TravelTips #Taksim #HagiaSophia #Bosphorus #Foodie #ExploreTheWorld #TravelPhotography #InstaGood #BucketList #Adventure #Traveling

#myhiddengems Over a course of 2 trips to turkey and several layovers in Istanbul. I have had the chance to explore stay options and areas in Istanbul. Here is my list of top areas to consider based on your needs and budgets :- 1 - Taksim For those who love the idea of staying in a modern and commercial part of Istanbul. Taksim is a great pick. Lots of shopping, dining and nightlife options. 2 - Beyoglu This is another popular neighbourhood to stay in Istanbul. It is known for its cultural and historical landmarks, as well as its trendy cafes and nightlife. 3 - Sultanahemet This place houses some of the most famous sights in Istanbul. It is not only the historic centre but also good food, dining and stay options. 4 - Galata This is a somewhat busy area with hilly streets. It's got its own vibe being on the old town. Located across from the river, you are walkable distances to the pier. #istanbul #trip #vacation #summer #taksim #food #cafe #restaurant

★Hotel we stayed at and some information about the area around Taksim Square★ ■Hotel name: Lokalist, Istanbul, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel ■Address: Mete Cad. 28, Beyoglu, Istanbul, Turkey, 34437 ■Location: It's a short walk from Taksim Square. The bus stop for the Havaist Bus to the airport is about a 10-minute walk away. The location is very good. ■Recommended points: Lokalist Istanbul is the best hotel in Istanbul! I stayed at Lokalist Istanbul on the last day of my trip to Istanbul. The room is about the size of a business hotel, but the facilities are brand new and sufficient. They upgraded me to a room with a great view of the sea, and when I asked in advance if there was a supermarket where I could buy Turkish beer, they even set up bottled beer in my room! They also gave me soft drinks from the refrigerator and nuts that go well with beer, which made me very happy. I really appreciate the warm hospitality. I had a very comfortable stay. When I come to Istanbul again, this hotel will be my only choice. #0yentravelFebruary2025 #Istanbul #Istanbulsolotravel #Istanbultourism #Istanbulnewcity #taksim
