Istanbul, the heart of Turkey
The cultural and economic heart of Turkey, as well as the country's largest city, is Istanbul. Designated a European Capital of Culture and a UNESCO listed World Heritage Site for parts of the historical centre, Istanbul has a natural harbour and lies in northwest Turkey on the Bosphorus Strait, between the Black Sea and the Sea of Marmara
Best time to head to Istanbul
May to October is the best time period for visiting, and if you like holiday and festival times, Turkey's national annual holiday, Commemoration of Atatürk, Youth and Sports Day, is held on May 19th, celebrating the beginning of the Turkish War of Independence in 1919. On 29th October Republic Day commemorates the declaration of the republic in 1923. Dates vary for the Eid Al-Fitr festival celebrating the end of Ramadan, but it is held on the first day of the Islamic calendar's tenth month.
Tips and facts before going to Istanbul
British nationals must have a visa which is obtainable online. Make sure your passport is valid for at least six months after your entry date into Turkey. It is recommended that you have diphtheria, tetanus, hepatitis A and typhus vaccinations.
When you go shopping in the markets, such as the Egyptian Bazaar and the Grand Bazaar, be aware that goods are usually overpriced and it's traditional to haggle. Istanbul is a fast food paradise with snacks starting at about 2 TRY and kebabs being around 8 TRY. A beer costs approximately 6 TRY. Fish is expensive. It's worth visiting the car-free Prince Islands where only horse-drawn carriages are authorised.
