The urge to explore the city of Istanbul dates back to the time when I was in school. Sometimes I feel, this “no-insta” era was a bliss. The few sources of knowing about the world were books, magazines and newspapers. Don’t judge me from the lines, but yes, I’m a little old-school person. I remember reading a travel book in my school library, which had an euphoric description and pictures of the city, and it was all imprinted on my neurons I feel. Flowing with the trend of bucket lists, Turkey definitely had to top that.

Turkey is bursting with breathtaking architecture, lip-smacking food and flowers. It’s one country which we would love to go more than once! Nestled on two continents, Asia and Europe, Turkey reflects the influence perfectly. Because of its unique geographic positioning, it was also the home to ‘The Great Silk Road’.
