   Imagine a city that’s steeped in history. Now think of a city that is vibrant and modern. Maybe you think no city can be both, but you’d be wrong. Istanbul, the most well-known city in Turkey, manages to combine both ancient traditions with a lively, contemporary feel. 

   Being the only city in the world that is situated on two continents, Istanbul is clearly something special. On the legendary Silk Route that once linked Asia and Europe and the capital of many different civilisations in the past, Istanbul has a cultural diversity that few cities can offer. It remains to this day a welcoming place for thousands of people that come to visit it each year. 

   Before you start thinking the city is touristy, Istanbul has more than just historic monuments. Alongside its fabulous mosques and palaces, you can find cool art galleries and trendy cafes. In fact, there is so much variety that you can always find something that suits your mood. If shopping is more your scene, you can head to the rand Bazaar with its thousands of stalls, or visit the many shopping centres and fashion stores. At night the streets are bustling with life and you’re spoilt for choice for places to eat and drink. 

   Quite frankly, Istanbul should be on any list of the world’s most liveable cities for its unique beauty and character. But don’t just take my word for it. Come and see for yourself. You might just end up staying, like many have before!
