A country you would like to visit

 Hi! hi!
Today I will tell you, where I would like to travel in the future.



I would like to meet Turkey, precisely the city of Istanbul, known in the elder times as Constantinople. Istanbul is in the Bosphorus zone, in the occidental part of Turkey, is the separation or union (it depends) between Europe and Asian continents, and the city extends for one and the other sides of them.
I would like to know and study in that place of cultural contact. Between east and westside, an historical hard point of economy of the world, even now in our times. I would like to observe how the structures and the architecture overlaps in the city. That is a clear example of the different empires that had it in their power, how they mixed and made Istanbul in one of the richest cultural jewels in the world.


In Istanbul we can find the basilica of Santa Sofia, palace of Topkapi (or Topkapı Sarayı), Tower of Galata, Blue Mosque, and other historical places in the city.

  1. Turkey definitely seems fascinating--with sooooo much history (from very ancient to modern) and great food and music.
