Istanbul, A City of Splendor

When I reminisce about my recent trip to Istanbul, Turkey I see visions of a fascinating city with mysterious charm.  Looking out on the waterways, bells and prayers ring from another world, an older world.  Istanbul evokes a feeling of past lives and journeys wandering the Middle East and Silk Roads.  Each twist and turn has a different color, unique fragrance and enticing texture.  The city overflows with ancient architecture and tales of the past, while modern elements bring the daydream back to reality.  Here are some of the beautiful sites I enjoyed immensely during my walks throughout Istanbul, Turkey.
