At the crossroads of Europe and Asia, Turkey covers an area one and a half times the size of France. The two continents meet in the northwest of the country, at the site where Istanbul was built.
The only city to sit astride two continents, Istanbul, once known as Byzantium and then Constantinople is today the economic and cultural capital of Turkey.
Like a thread stretched between different communities, the city binds together two close continents and two distant cultures. Let yourself be fascinated by this thriving and ever-changing city.
From the film: "Discovering the World - Istanbul"
Direction: Pierre Brouwers
Production: MEDIA 9

Istanbul is about, power and trade. A city built on seven hills, the gateway to the world. They have a huge buzzard.

its very deep cultural seat for centuries, evolved over time. it has rich heritage a history. Charming old ancient tradition should be preserved, they add on such mystique and delights the senses, shouldn't cost much though. cultures evolved over centuries are what shape your sensibilities and generations to come, these facts cannot be igrnored, what can groups still in savages stage with dull not going anywhere even today can even contribute to word's society nothing except when they get bad ass training and those results are clear to see,

The blue mosque was built in 1609, The Christian Basilica Hagia Sophia was built by Greeks in 537, more than 1000 years before the blue mosque, not only 100 years before. Istanbul it’s a Greek name too, and it means into the City. Was Constantinople up to 1927. The city been invaded by the Ottomans in 1453 unfortunately.
