Istanbul

Istanbul, Turkey

Date: 2011-10-28

A city sits on Asian and Europe continents. A bridge connects Asia and Europe. Blue Mosque and St. Sophia are the major attractions. A city with many mosques. It used to be a Christian city. The Grand Bazzar boasts as world's large bazzar. It is very big, the jewelry section is very different.
In Turkish I want to taste Turkish coffee. Only in Starbucks there is no language barrier, so I ordered it. The clerk was pretty shocked, you order Turkish coffee, not the famous Starbucks' coffee. It is $2 for a cup. It takes 5 minutes to make it. The taste is not enjoyable.
