I will make a disclaimer here. I will post one Today’s Outfit picture for the whole post. Apparently, in all of my pictures, I look like I was wearing a same getup. Another disclaimer: this will be a picture-heavy article. I hope you don’t mind one little article of travel amongst all the beauty and fashion necessities!
Recently, I had the wonderful chance to take a short vacation to Istanbul this last December. It was one of the best destinations I have ever been, hands down. I went to Turkey for 5 days, four of which were spent in Istanbul. Rich with culture and history, the huge city, populated by 14 million people, is one of the places you should go before you die.
Istanbul has hundreds of good sights to go, and here I list my Top Ten best things in the city. Some of them are standard in any tour itinerary, some other, may not be. I will stick to just Istanbul, although excursions to outside the city also offer great things to do as well. The list here is in no particular order.
1. Be awed in Haghia Sophia
Oh, of course. This is my number one sight to see. The former church-turned-mosque-turned-museum is a majestic structure, as magnificent as the city itself. Pictures and video recordings do not do justice to this place. You just have to see it in person to fully appreciate its beauty. The next time I have the chance to visit Istanbul again, I would spend a whole day inside Haghia Sophia and take pictures of every corner possible!
