Nice post. Thanks for sharing your experience in İstanbul; I'm glad you liked it!
İstanbul is one of my favourite places in the world. You really should explore all of Turkey though, it's a uniquely diverse country with many different landscapes as well as different cultures and cuisines in each region. I regularly post photos of my trips to different parts of Turkey, but one day I hope to spend one year discovering the entire country in depth.
Anyway, take care,
All the best!
