极个别同学-The location was easy to find; just follow the GPS. The signs were large and prominent. We didn't request a hotel pick-up and found the ship easily on our own. We showed our QR code, and they let us board. A staff member verified our names and led us to our seats. Everything went very smoothly. On the ship, we saw the Bosphorus Strait at night, a very novel experience. We also enjoyed local food and watched local performances. People from different countries and regions blended together through dance. The service staff were excellent. They were quick to change our meals and refill our water. The tablecloths were clean, the toilets were spotless, the floors weren't greasy, and there were no unpleasant smells on the ship. A very good experience!

Travel JuriVery impressive, especially how the light shines through the hundreds if coloured glass windows, the tranquility amidst hundreds of tourists that people use to do their prayers.

火锅美人鱼Climbing the tower offers a 360-degree panoramic view of Istanbul. The queue takes about an hour, and I started queuing around 4 PM on November 13th. I managed to catch the sunset just in time, which was quite a rare treat! Although the price was a bit steep, I felt it was worth it.

看云的馬Istanbul's Grand Bazaar is the largest and most beautiful in Eurasia. Once you've visited, you won't want to leave. More than just a shopping paradise, it's a living museum where you can experience the legacy of the Ottoman Empire and the culture of Turkish life. Wandering through arcades shimmering with light and shadow, the clink of vendors' cries and the clatter of teaware echo in your ears—this is undoubtedly a must-visit for exploring the soul of Istanbul. Like it 👍

_We***60Istanbul Archaeology Museum is the most important archaeological museum in Turkey and one of the most outstanding in the world. It is located in the outer courtyard of Topkapi Palace and houses more than 1 million artifacts, covering civilizations from Mesopotamia, Egypt, Anatolia, Ancient Greece, Ancient Rome to Byzantium and Ottoman Empire. It is almost zero distance from the remains of ancient civilizations and can be called a "time container". #One of my favorite museums

携Cheng携ChengIstanbul Riverside I said before that the Grand Bazaar is the big alley in Istanbul, and Istiklal Street is the Istanbul Riverside. On the first day, we went to Taksim Square with a group tour, and only had one hour to go shopping. Of course, we didn't go shopping enough, so we arranged our time here for the second day's free travel. We took the bus from the hotel to this area (it is said that the taxi price in Istanbul is expensive and there is traffic jam, because the traffic jam will be more expensive, so we chose to take the bus). We first went to the Rainbow Stairs, and then walked through a residential area to the nearby Carrefour. In the middle, we also went into a drugstore. The owner was very talkative and said that he had been to many places in China, and even to Tianjin and Hohhot. He was very kind. It was a mistake to go to Carrefour first. I bought a lot of things, which caused us to carry these things behind me. After buying snacks and souvenirs, we came to Istiklal Street, which may be the busiest pedestrian street in Istanbul. There were a lot of people on the day we went. It can be seen that not only foreign tourists came to visit, but also locals came to shop. There are large and small shopping malls, restaurants, jewelry stores, souvenir shops, and clothing stores on the street. The types of shops are very complete. We went to Pandora, Mado, St. Anthony's Church, a baked potato shop, a regular restaurant barbecue shop, a street stall barbecue shop, a candy store, many clothing stores, Watsons, two shopping malls... I don't know if I have said it all. I walked around for a whole day and went back when it was dark. I bought a lot of things and ate local special barbecue. Although I spent the whole day on this street and didn't go anywhere else, there are really a lot of food, drinks and shopping on this street. Although it's a bit tiring, I had a great time. The food is much better when traveling independently than when traveling with a group.
