Merhaba Turkey


Merhaba!

At the mention of turkey or Cappadocia, everyone will ask "did you go for the hot air balloon"? No doubt, balloons go up every morning and fly through the amazing valleys being the most popular hot air balloon ride destination in the world.
This is evident in the morning when everyone is willing to wake up at 4-5am just to see the sky littering with close to 100 balloons.

With its most hospitable people, beautiful culture, underground cities and hollow caves, Cappadocia is like no other place on this earth that visitors will forget, the memories will be kept for the rest of their lives.


Flying back to Istanbul, which is the largest city and principal seaport of turkey, sadly it is not the capital of Turkey.

The old walled city of Istanbul stands on a triangular peninsula between Europe and Asia. Sometimes as a bridge, sometimes as a barrier, Istanbul for more than 2,500 years has stood between conflicting surges of religion, culture, and imperial power. For most of those years it was one of the most coveted cities in the world.

As much as i stay in the European part, there is no doubt you will want to take a look what is happening in the Asia part across that bridge, went up to the top floor and look over back to the Europe side.

Breakfast is the first thing i crave for every morning. Istanbulites take their breakfast very seriously and oh i love it, the most healthy and happy coloured breakfast of all!


Loved walking in their bazaar looking at their nuts, spices colour, sweet pretty desserts and not forgetting the glittering gold shinning so bright into my eyes.

Not forgetting my pretty scarf as i'm hopped from mosque to mosque daily. They have one of the most beautiful and elegant mosques and it is easy to spot them from afar. The interior design present with its impressive awe-inspiring size central dome,
the large chandeliers, lush carpet, simple woodwork & pretty stained-glass window, oh so pretty!

Teşekkūr ederim Istanbul and Cappadocia for this beautiful memories with me and my friends!
