The last visit in Istanbul.

Visit the New Palace in Istanbul, which was built in 1843 and completed in 1856, covering an area of 2.5 million square meters. The interior of the palace is extremely luxurious, and the luxurious crystal lamp is particularly eye-catching, including the world's largest crystal chandelier weighing 4,500 kg. The royal supplies of gold, ivory, ceramics, oil paintings and oversized handmade carpets show the royal style. After the establishment of the Republic of Turkey, the president and the father of Turkey, Kemal, lived and worked here. However, no photos are allowed inside the New Palace. The Suleymaniye Mosque is the last attraction in Turkey. It was ordered by Suleiman I and was built in a very short time from 1550 to 1557. It is the most important work of architect Kocha Mimar Sinan. The mosque is beautiful inside, with a tall dome and a wide hall, and different prayer areas, showing solemnity. There are also supporting Muslim schools around, and the magnificent buildings represent the urban architectural style. After a few days of travel, I have a further understanding of Turkey. The tour guide Farouk repeatedly emphasized that the Turks are Turks and are different from other Muslims. Here, the hotel can sell wine, and women do not need to cover their faces. Walking on Independence Street next to Taksim Square, you can see bars everywhere on the street, shopping malls are lined up, the goods are rich, and the crowd is very new and prosperous. Here you can see tourists from various countries, and there are few Chinese faces. Food is always a tourist attraction feature, and various snacks have their own style. However, the staple food in Turkey is bread, we have breakfast bread, lunch bread, and dinner bread. There are a lot of beef and mutton barbecues, which are very delicious. The
