Istanbul is one of the greatest cities in the world. Located at the point where East meets West, the city has long been the crossroads of civilization. It is believed that no other city in the world has seen more history than this vast sprawling metropolis. At first, it was known as Byzantium, then Constantinople, and then in the 15th century, this city fell into the hands of the Ottomans. Gradually, it morphed into Istanbul. Today, it is a bustling city with 14 million people and bustling with energy. Although the city is mostly Turkish, the people here are very cosmopolitan in nature. 

The majority of the Old City area has been declared as UNESCO World Heritage Sites and has received worldwide recognition as one of the biggest Muslim nations. For majority of the visitors, Istanbul is all about Sultanahmet and the vast array of monuments and museums that are definitely the highlights of the city. The city also has a vibrant arts and music scene, and the frantic pace of city life is well-complemented by the flourishing shopping malls, cafes, and the streets that are choked with endless traffic. 

But what makes Istanbul unique? The beautiful Sea of Marmara, the numerous small islands of Adalar district where you can see lots of horse-drawn carriages, and above all, the shopping options, the exceptional cuisine, and the hotels make Istanbul one of the most preferred tourist destinations of the world. 

Istanbul has only one thing constant - change. In fact, if you have visited this beautiful city a couple of years back, you will not be able to recognize this place at all.
