POPSTEL BALAT

Words are not enough to describe Istanbul. Home, history, love, devotion, melancholy, chaos, happiness, excitement, loneliness... if I had to be a city in the world, it would be Istanbul. Istanbul is like a movie whose ending you cannot predict, a poem that makes you cry when you read it, a song that reminds you of the past when you listen to it... I hope you enjoy this guide, which I have prepared with all my feelings and local recommendations.

Explore this map, I made as the ultimate Turkey guide, to get inspired and discover the places that will become the highlight of your next trip.
