Set in a stunning location, Istanbul is divided by the Bosphorus. As everyone knows, one half of the city lies on the tip of the European continent and the other on the Asian Continent. They are linked by two bridges. Istanbul has been the capital of three Empires. Each has left its mark with palaces, mosques and monuments that together make for an intoxicating blend of cultures and heritages.The city’s Turkish baths, bazaars, restaurants and cafes lend an added sensuous dimension to any holiday in Istanbul. The European side has the major sites and the key ones are within thirty minutes walk of each other.
