Istanbul Area İstanbul is truly a world city, a city which everyone should visit at least once in their lifetime. It is an enchanting blend of Eastern andWestern culture, a vibrant, modern city, with an unique identity, its rich past coexisting alongside its youthful exuberance. Although no longer the capital of Turkey – Atatürk created Ankara as the capital at the heart of his new Turkish Republic, as a symbolic break from the Ottoman Empire – it remains the country’s cultural and business centre.
It is a city of contrasts, bustling with the cacophony of 21st century life, and yet achingly beautiful. It is set in a stunning location, surrounded by water – the narrow strait of the Bosphorus and the serene Sea of Marmara separating Europe from Asia. İstanbul has a foot in each, celebrating the best of both heritages.As Byzantium, Constantinople and finally, İstanbul, it has been the capital of three Empires, each leaving their mark in the form of stunning palaces, castles, mosques, churches andmonuments. The legacy of its chequered past can be seen in every turn of the modern city.
