ISTANBUL

Located in the center of the Old World, Istanbul is one of the world’s great cities famous for its historical monuments and magnificient scenic beauties. It is the only city in the world which spreads over two continents: It lies at a point where Asia and Europe are separated by a narrow strait – the Bosphorus. Istanbul has a history of over 2,500 years, and ever since its establishment on this strategic junction of lands and seas, the city has been a crucial trade center.

Besides Istanbul’s historical importance and cultural heritage, the city is furbished with modern hotels, elegant restaurants, night clubs, bars, historical bazaars and modern shops. Once you step in this city, you will be able to experience by yourself this historical and natural beauty beyond words can describe.
