Aromas, flavors, bazars and history around Istanbul Turkey (Part 1)

A couple of flights away from Chania, Crete Greece we ended up in Sultanahmet Istanbul.

As you fly in over Istanbul, you are reminded that this is a city of over 12 million people.

In search of a short trip near Chania, my family and I decided to spend a few days exploring the wonders and as much history as possible.

Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palace, Galata tower, Taksim square just to name a few.

This is my “warm up” post before I manage to edit and share some more of the images I captured during our trip.

Stand by for part 2 and thanks for visiting.
