The Bosporus Strait, which divides Istanbul in two, is also known as the Strait of Istanbul. It connects the Black Sea in the north to the Marmara and Mediterranean Sea in the south, splitting Turkey into a European side and an Asian side. Both sides are famous historical districts in Istanbul.

Palaces
一休哥3
Topkapa Palace is one of Turkey's most famous palaces, with Beijing Palace, Paris Versailles, Moscow Kremlin and other known as the world's top ten palaces, located in the heart of Istanbul, just behind the Hagia Sophia. Like the Forbidden City, Topkapa Palace is also very large, and a young man has to spend most of the day if he wants to visit the entire palace in detail. There are palaces and buildings large and small in the palace, and there are many exhibits. The innermost palace can see the Istanbul Strait and the mountain view on the other side of the Strait. In addition to the big, the entire palace is surrounded by flowers and vegetation everywhere, which is very beautiful. Tickets 🎫 are 950 lira, which is more expensive, more expensive than the Forbidden City, but it is worth a visit. At the same time, the Palace also provides audio guides in multiple languages, and you can get them by showing your passport 🪪, which is very convenient.

We went to the Galata, built in 1348, and after queuing in, the elevator went directly to the 6th floor, and then walked 2 floors to the top floor. Overlooking Istabul, the blue sky and blue sea green trees and red roof are very beautiful. After watching, you can only walk down. Every floor has some to visit, although the visibility is not strong.

Dr. Dennis E. Ericson
It's the modern days Royal palace of the late Ottoman Empire and early Republic of Turkiye. Last kings of the Ottoman Empire. And caliph Abdulaziz and the founder of Turkiye Mustafa Kemal Atatürk have been there. The museum is a little bit expensive and it's forbidden to take pictures. The behaviour of security was not professional and friendly. Painting was so special even though there were George Washington's paintings. I definitely suggest you also visit the art gallery.

Turkey's capital is not Istanbul, but Istanbul, located on the border between Asia and Europe, blends Chinese and Western culture, is full of strong European customs, attracting countless tourists, and is lingering.
