It's been quite a long time since i updated my fotopages entry...well...not really. So today i just wanna share with u guys some of my photos taken during my visit to Istanbul, Turkey on 12-15 April 2007. Thanx to my wife who happens to be a research coordinator for one of her faculty dean's project under WHO which having an annual meeting there. Because the flight ticket and accommodation for my wife was fully sponsored so i just have to pay for my return flight tickets... which is quite expensive. But it's a once in a lifetime chance!
We stayed at Hyatt Regency Istanbul, located at the center of the new & modern part of Istanbul City. It's quite cold there with temperature 9 dC at night and about 12dC during day. It's a beautiful city enriched with architectural heritage and parks. Istanbul is an Islamic city so u can find halal food served everywhere...but mostly kebab...until you feel like dying eating kebab But one thing which was not so pleasing there was their currency is higher than us...1YTL (New Turkish Lira) is equivalent to RM2.75! Even to use a public toilet we have to pay 1YTL.
There are a lot of interesting places in Istanbul which we managed to go namely Hagia Sofia, the Blue Mosque, Spice Market, The Grand Bazaar and Topkapi Palace. It's our luck to catch the breathtaking landscape of tulips everywhere because as we went there it was the Tulips Festival. We were told by the tourist guide that tulip is originated in Istanbul, which most people associate with Holland.
rasanya lebih puas berjalan di turki terutama kepada pencinta sejarah dan benda2 lama.
tukaran matawang tu ok lagi berbanding tempat yg saya pegi ni sama juga time pi jepun dulu. makan briyani haritupun dekat RM30, teh segelas dah RM12, lagi naya apa.
best ekk dpt amik gmba, pegang2 real life tulips. kalu tau noli pesan beli doh sedozen 2 dozen. heheheh anyway, best giler2 dpt jln2 kt istanbul. kire animun la, alang2. hehehe. tenkiu gelang n magnet ciklinnnnnn...
