To Asia and back to Europe
Istanbul is a great city. It's not like your typical capital city where you just want to leave as soon as possible, like Guatemala City or Lima, Peru. Istanbul has some beautiful Masques, great cafes, and beautiful Palaces.
I'm on day two in Istanbul and I feel exhausted after seeing so much.
Yesterday I headed to Topkapi Palace …

DAY 1
Today was the day I've been most stressed about, even back when booking this holiday, as it had the lowest connection times and the fewest flights available. As it turned out, I had absolutely nothing to worry about (yet again).

TravelPod Member ReviewsAntique Hostel - Guest House Istanbul
Being in the Sultanahmet area, this hostel is in the perfect position. You walk for five minutes and the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia are right there! The staff here are wonderful too. The only downfall is the free breakfast, which is very poor and mainly consists of bread. Also, the "included" transfer is very expensive, although it is possibly a good option if you have just arrived and don't have your bearings yet.
