#bosphorus

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

We had a 4 nights stopover in Istanbul on our way to North America and it was an amazing experience. We stayed in a hotel in old city next to sea side. We walked around the cobalt stone streets, tasted the Türkiye’s cuisine, visited the famous mosque, took a cruise around Bosphorus and travel between Asian and European parts of Istanbul. #istanbul #turkiye #bosphorus #summerdestinations #asia #europe #goodfoods #mosque #architecture #seafood #kebab #turkey

The bosphorus is the lifeline of everything in Istanbul. It is practically part of most tourist sights and you are never away from it. You experience it from different corners of the city and it is one of the elements that add to a serene vibe. I have come to become fond of it over my stays in Istanbul. One of the best ways of exploring the beauty of the Bosphorous is via one of the cruises. While you will not be short of options when it comes to these tours. You want to be careful with what you pick. This is an experience that can accentuate with the right cruise. I have done both day time and night time cruises. The night ones include music, performances and dinner. It can be noisy for some but very lively. While the day time cruises are more quiet and serene. They allow you to observe the city of Istanbul. Around the eminonu pier you will find many options. But you are also likely to fall into a tourist trap, overpay for poor quality cruises. Put some research in and seek a quality experience with limited people and good ratings. #myhiddengems #bosphorus #summerdestinations #bosphoruscruise #istanbul #100waysoftravel

I recently returned from an incredible trip to Istanbul, a city where history and modernity seamlessly intertwine. One of the highlights of my visit was the iconic **Galata Tower**. This medieval stone tower, standing tall on the skyline, offers panoramic views of the Bosphorus and the sprawling city below. Climbing to the top was a journey in itself, with each floor revealing more about Istanbul’s rich past. Beyond Galata, I explored the vibrant neighborhoods that make Istanbul so unique. **Sultanahmet** was a must-see, home to the majestic **Hagia Sophia** and the stunning **Blue Mosque**. Both landmarks are architectural marvels that capture the essence of Istanbul’s diverse cultural heritage. The grandeur of Hagia Sophia, with its massive dome and intricate mosaics, is truly awe-inspiring, while the Blue Mosque’s serene courtyard and blue-tiled interior offer a peaceful respite from the bustling city. I also wandered through the historic **Grand Bazaar**, one of the world’s oldest and largest covered markets. The maze-like corridors were filled with shops selling everything from spices to jewelry. Bargaining with the local vendors was an experience in itself, adding to the vibrant atmosphere. Another unforgettable experience was taking a **Bosphorus cruise**, where I could appreciate the city from a different perspective. The views of the palaces and the sprawling skyline were simply breathtaking. Istanbul’s culinary scene is equally impressive. From savoring traditional Turkish delights at local eateries to enjoying fresh seafood by the Bosphorus, every meal was a feast for the senses. My trip to Istanbul was an unforgettable blend of history, culture, and modern-day vibrancy—truly a city like no other. #Istanbul #GalataTower #HagiaSophia #BlueMosque #GrandBazaar #TravelDiaries #Bosphorus #TurkishDelights #Wanderlust #TravelTurkey

Vogue Restaurant is a chic and modern venue derived from the famous, well known fashion and lifestyle brand: VOGUE. Located on the 13th floor of the BJK Plaza in the bustling city of Istanbul, extensive wall to wall windows and an enclosed rooftop terrace allow a beautiful, panoramic view of the Bosphorus skyline. The vintage VOGUE portraits, dainty furniture, and simplistic color scheme provide a stylish atmosphere and enjoyable evening in the heart of the city. Dinner was very delicious! It included: Shrimp Dumplings, Grilled Salmon, and Cheesecake. The signature cocktail was Lale Devri. I would highly recommend this restaurant as a Istanbul “must visit” for delightful ambience, good service, and delicious international cuisine. #VogueRestaurant #Vogue #FineDiningOnly #Istanbul #Bosphorus #Turkey #i̇stanbultrip

🌊 Ferries drift by, seagulls calling overhead, and a few people hurry along, tucked into their coats against the drizzle. In the distance, Dolmabahçe Palace glimmers through the grey, its domes standing tall. With a warm coffee in my hands and the soft patter of rain all around, I realize I’ve fallen in love with this place. There’s something so peaceful in these simple moments by the Bosphorus. 🌧️☕ #Bosphorus #CoffeeMoments #Istanbul #dolmabahçe

My recent trip to Istanbul was nothing short of magical, and the highlight of my journey was undoubtedly the cruise on the Bosphorus Strait. This incredible body of water, which separates Europe and Asia, offers stunning views and a unique perspective of the city, making it an experience I will cherish forever. As I boarded the elegantly decorated boat, I was immediately struck by the warm and inviting atmosphere on board. The staff greeted us with friendly smiles and ushered us to our tables, where we settled in for an evening of culinary delights and breathtaking scenery. The ambiance was perfect, with soft music playing in the background and the gentle sway of the boat adding to the relaxing vibe. As we set sail, the views unfolded before us like a living postcard. The skyline of Istanbul, with its iconic mosques and historical palaces, was mesmerizing against the twilight sky. It was a delight to watch as the sun began to set, painting the sky in hues of pink and orange. The illumination of the Bosphorus bridges and waterfront mansions as dusk fell added a magical touch to our cruise. The dinner served on board was exceptional. Each dish was a reflection of the rich culinary traditions of Turkey. From the delicious mezze platter to the perfectly grilled fish, every bite was a delight. The highlight of the meal was undoubtedly the lamb kebabs, which were tender and bursting with flavor. Paired with a glass of local wine, it was a true gastronomic treat. Throughout the evening, the staff was attentive and accommodating, ensuring that we had everything we needed to make our experience unforgettable. The service was impeccable, and their passion for hospitality shone through. As the cruise came to an end, I felt a deep sense of contentment. The combination of stunning views, exquisite food, and warm hospitality made this evening something truly special. The Bosphorus cruise is a must-do when visiting Istanbul, whether you're a first-time traveler or a seasoned explorer. It offers a unique glimpse into the soul of this beautiful city.
