CITIX60 Guide - Istanbul

The Galata Bridge which spans the Golden Horn is the perfect symbol for today's Istanbul, which has always been at the crossroads of the old and the new and of east and west. Part open-air museum, part modern metropolis, it has been exposed to numerous cultural influences over the millennia, each leaving behind a little of their essence. Lose yourself in Yeldegirmeni, where international street artists make their mark, or the Dolapdere Sunday Market where treasures can be found for a pittance.
