Istanbul » Istanbul | 101 Ovde poput nekog pridošlice uživam u svakompredivnomdetalju, od cvetanja čuvenog judinog drveta do jednostavne svakodnevne vožnje trajektom. Sve je novo ako zadržite otvoren pogled na okolinu Here I enjoy every beautiful detail like some newcomer, from the blossoming of the famous Judas trees to simple everyday ferry rides. Everything is new if you maintain an open view of your surroundings Parkovi su svojevrsna utočišta za stanovnike Istanbula, tu se okupljaju, druže, ćaskaju, uživaju u pogledu na more i bave sportom Parks are a kind of haven for Istanbulers, where they meet, hangout, chat, enjoy views of the sea or participate in sports Najupečatljivija slika grada za mene je most na Bosforu koji povezuje Aziju i Evropu. Svaki put dok ga prelazim, naježim se diveci se pogledu. Kao i svi veliki gradovi sveta, Istanbul ima svoju vibraciju, svoj ritam. Tokom istorije bio je centar mnogih civilizacija i dok se šetate njegovimulicama, šetaćete kroz istoriju prolazeći pored zgrada nemačkih arhitekata iz 19. veka koje se nalaze u blizini palata koje je izgradio svetski poznati, glavni osmanski arhitekta Sinan. Istanbul je gusto i raznoliko naseljen i karakteriše ga mešavina kultura i etničkih grupa. Da biste sagledali svu raznolikost, predložio bih da se upoznate sa što više meštana. Mi, Turci, volimo goste, i u svojim domovima, i u svojoj zemlji. Širom Turske se prema strancima uvek odnosimo s najvecim gostoprimstvom. Dan počinite u svitanje uz obalu mora Počnite dan napolju doručkom sa švedskim stolomuzmore. Poznati turski pesnik kaže da „doručak mora da ima neke veze sa srećom“. Budite spremni da pijete čaj iz čaša i jedete više nego ikad. Zapravo, ne samo po doručku, Turska je poznata po svojoj kuhinji, pa uživajte u svakom zalogaju. Za doručak bih predložiomesto u Bebeku ili Rumeli Hisarı, a za večerumorske plodove u restoranu u Arnavutkoiu uz raznovrsno meze i čašicu čuvene turske rakije. The quintessential image of the city for me is the Bosphorus Bridge connecting Asia and Europe. Every time I cross it, it gives me goosebumps admiring the view. Like all big cities around the world, Istanbul has a vibe of its own, its own rhythm per se. It has been a centre for many civilisations throughout history and, as you stroll the streets of Istanbul, you will witness 19th century buildings by German architects adjacent to palaces built by the world renowned Chief Ottoman Architect Sinan. Istanbul is densely and diversely populated and characterised by a mixture of cultures and ethnicities. So I would suggest meeting as many locals as possible. We, as Turkish people, love guests, both in our homes and in our country. Foreigners are always treated with the utmost hospitality throughout Turkey. Start your day with a sunrise by the seaside Start the day with an open buffet breakfast by the seaside. A famous Turkish poet says “breakfast must have something to do with happiness”. Be prepared to drink tea fromglasses and eatmore than you ever have. And not just for breakfast. Turkey is famous for its cuisine, so enjoy every morsel. For breakfast I would suggest a place in Bebek or Rumeli Hisarı, and for dinner a seafood restaurant in Arnavutköy, with lots of “mezzes” to accompany the famous “Turkish Rakı”.
