Istanbul Trip

If you transit at Istanbul Airport more than 10 hours,
If you travel using Turkish Airline,
If you are free,

Then, you are qualify for options below:
a) A free Istanbul sightseeing with 1 free lunch.
b) A free bedroom hotel to stay for rest.
c) Both.

I selected option (a).
"Free Istanbul sightseeing tour for all our transit passengers"
They are my tour guide - they can speak english very well + FAST.
There are lot of historical building in the Istanbul city center.
It is a nice weather at Istanbul ~ 20degree during April - May.
Sure, Turkish Airline pay for us the entrance for this historical place as well.
A lot of beautiful tulip flower (3 - 18 April)
It is very old trees but still grow so firmly.
You can hide yourself inside the tree as well.
There is a Kitchen which able fit 5000 people.
A lot invaluable items stored here.
The security is very high.  
From the viewer, you can see the another side of Istanbul.
Library - but not book inside????
It is a wonderful view - it is better you come over here.
It is a good place for honeymoon as well. Nice View.
You can see a lot of food stall around.
It is costs expensive as well. Hehehe
The view is look nice, but my lousy hand phone camera cannot perform to get more clear photos. : (
For those who cannot survive without internet, you can surf net here too.
Free WiFi!
Most of the historical place is Mosque.
Most of the people's religion is Muslim.
The design is almost same like Church design in europe countries.
This is a statue which transport from Egypt.
It should be longer but cut to small portion.
A lot of different decoration & sourvenirs.

Food which provided by Turkish Airlines.
Taste sure good - Free one boh... hehehe
One of the historical mosque - Must visit else you never come to Istanbul.
This is a market place.
"Grand Bazaar"
It is just like a Maze.
You will lost if you don't have a good direction sense.
There are a lot of gate - in and out.
"mmm crowned & crowned"
Come over here if you visit Istanbul.

So... Next time, you plan to have a holiday to Europe country.
Buy a air ticket which you have 24 hours transit time.

Then, you can select option (c) 
If you are holding Malaysian passport, you not need to apply any Visa at here.

It is F.R.E.E.

It indirectly means "WELCOME TO TURKEY"

Nice photos even though from your cell phone. Love the big old tree you can't go inside to feel the 'energy' of the old tree? According to Shamanism it is good to embrace a tree for healing and spiritual purpose. But make sure you don't grab the 'other' spirit then 'chak lat liao' haha.

Just curious is that tourist guide a Turkish? *if you dont know its ok*. Reason I asked do all the ladies in Turky must wear tudung or veil to cover up their faces?
