Istanbul insider information- Turkish coffee, the so-strong-you-can-stand-up-your-spoon-in-it blend may be better known, but Turks drink tea during the day. You’ll more than likely be offered a cup if you’re shopping in a bazaar. It’s not rude to refuse a cup, but be upfront with your host if you’re not going to buy. Apple tea, elma cai, is particularly popular with visitors.
- If you need a break from the hubbub of Istanbul, take to the water. A ferry ride along the Bosphorus River is a really wonderful way of seeing the city.
- Bagdat Caddesi is one of the most upmarket streets in Istanbul. It’s on the Asian side of the city. From the European side, take a ferry to Kadikoy and continue on a dolmus.
- Galata Tower is a huge stone circular landmark that offers fantastic views of the city. In times past, it was the lookout of Galata, the Genoese town.
- If you want to buy the traditional kilim (carpet), without the Grand Bazaar experience – visit the small towns in the countryside where the carpets are made.
