Istanbul
Istanbul is Turkey's largest metropolis, straddling two continents—Europe and Asia—along the Bosphorus Strait. The city is the cultural and financial heart of the country. Here, you'll discover historical treasures like Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palace, and the Blue Mosque. Istanbul attracts visitors with its rich history and modernity. Summers climb to 30 °C, while winters remain mild. The best time to visit is spring and autumn, when the weather is pleasant and ideal for exploring.
