We did a LOT of walking in Istanbul. I think we only rode to/from the airport and on our boat cruise. The rest of the time we walked. I was exhausted most of the time, but did enjoy seeing the city up close & personal at a slower pace. Here are some of the lovely places we encountered while wandering the streets of Istanbul.
Hagia Sphia - a famous church/mosque
The German fountain
A walking street near the Grand Bazaar
A little food shop on a busy street - I took the photo because I have a good friend named "Cara" and it reminded me of her. :)
I thought these lanterns were gorgeous!
Amanda taking a break on a ladybug rock!
Another great little walking street
Fun outdoor seating on a walking street
Istanbul had Burger King & McDonalds, but they also had Burger Turk! :)
An armed entrance to some official area.
A very ornate and lovely convenience kiosk
A gate we passed through on the way to Topkapi Palace
An old building
