That is for long times I did not write in this website. Because that time I was in Iran but now living in emirates and I like to share my ideas with my friend around the world.
Most of my working life has been in travel. And also now I like to travel more. My journey to turkey began some years ago with help of my friend “kemal ozkurt” , professor of Van university in turkey. Van is a small but attractive city in turkey. Weather is very nice and the nature is very excellent. Until now I can't forget that delicious break fast we had in van .any way sure turkey is the best touristical country in Middle East .the income of tourisim that turkey earns is more than the money that Iran earns of selling oil and you know that Iran is the 4th biggest country in selling oil in the world. The fuel in turkey is very expensive and if you travel by bus from Tehran to Istanbul your ticket would be half of the money that you will pay to travel from van to Istanbul. Istanbul the city that I think there is no body in Europe, Canada, states that isn’t familiar whit this city. Capital of old Islamic emperor. The city that you can see the pioneering styles of Turk mosques, with beautiful islands , boats and Mediterranean Sea around
Favourite spots:
VAN city
The special think that I like is coasts and beaches in turkey. the clean water, people who are swimming and that is because of the same goal they have and it is enjoy, to be relax and not think of money or business unless the local people that do as their job in their country
What's really great:
my freinds
but one the main important thing about this country and I think Turkish countries is that you can very fast find friends from different countries and when they know more about you they will trust.you can have a very good friend ship and enjoy your staying in turkey. For example the situation is completely reverse in countries that basically are maid on business plans like Dubai, Hong Kong and etc.
Sights:
A city with traditional building, mix of eastern architecture and western architecture, The mosques that cause of cold weather in turkey are covered whit beautiful domes and huge spaces that are free of columns inside all are of the best sights in Istanbul
Accommodations:
Hotels with different prices, cheap and expensive, hostels for some kind of travelers are different kind of accommodation in turkey. Also you can hire local home or flats.
Nightlife:
Only I should note you about safety in Istanbul, where to go, where to stay. Be careful of people who invite you to discos, drinking and inside markets.
Hangouts:
Middle of the city, AYASOFIE and KING AKBAR mosque, traveling with trauma and walking all places are very fantastic. You can do shopping mostly in islands.
Restaurants:
breakfast in Van
For food mostly all places are safe. Drinking alcohol outside especially in Istanbul is forbidden.
All of Istanbul is full of different restaurants whit different prices that will suit you
Other recommendations:
sheap travelling
Other spots are concerts in the city, cinemas, some parks inside city and all of that you will see around and will suit you
