Istanbul as a travel destination

Istanbul is divided in two by the Bosphorus, which runs between the Black Sea and the Sea of Marmara. A grand mosaic of East and West, this is the only city in the world built on two continents. The old centre of Sultanahmet, where our hotel is located and which occupies the tip of the peninsula south of the Golden Horn, is home to the city's main sightseeing attractions including:

The cathedral of Aya Sofya, Topkapi Palace and the Blue Mosque and many people find that they spend all their non F1 time here. Further west near the explorable city walls lies the Kariye Camii, which contains the city's finest surviving Byzantine mosaics and frescoes. Across the Golden Horn to the north, the Galata Tower offers superb panoramic views over the city.

Although you're still technically in Europe, there are immediate differences: The back streets teem with traders pushing handcarts, stevedores carrying burdens twice their size, and omnipresent shoeshine boys. Men still monopolize the public bars and teahouses, while many women cover their heads, averting their gaze. Yet this is merely one aspect of modern Istanbul; only a couple of kilometers to the north you'll find the former European quarter of Beyoglu, with its trendy bars and cutting-edge dance club.
