No city in the world is as beloved by Empires as Istanbul. The capital of several Empires—Roman, Byzantine, Latin, and Ottoman, the city is alive with this intermingling of Asia and Europe. On each side of the Bosphorus are incredible mosques, palaces, and monuments that have survived the centuries. The vision that is Istanbul will certainly leave lasting impressions on your mind.
