28 Ekim 2009 - Đstanbul 2010 Culture Capital’s First Activity An Exhibition on “Venice and Istanbul during the Period; Love, by any other name “ at the Sakıp Sabancı Museum - The Exhibition takes place with the support of Sabancı Holding In conjunction with the state visit to Turkey of President Giorgio Napolitano of the Republic of Italy and with the contribution of Sabancı Holding, An Exhibition on "Venice and Istanbul during the Ottoman Period; Love, by any other name” will encounter art lovers between 19 November 2009 and 28 February 2010 at the S.Ü. Sakıp Sabancı Museum (SSM). The first activity in the celebration of Istanbul’s status as 2010 Culture Capital, the exhibition is intended to acquaint visitors with the mutual influences and historical synergy between the two cities that extended from the 15th to the 20th century. Along with selected works of art from the museums of Venice, the exhibition also includes works chosen from the collections of the Topkapı Palace Museum, Museum of Turkish and Islamic Art, Pera Museum and Yapı Kredi Vedat Nedim Tör Museum. Works from museums in Turkey representing the shared past and deep historical, social and commercial relationships as they were experienced during the period on the Istanbul end will accompany the works that come from Venice. Thus the exhibition will display the panorama of close diplomatic, military, commercial and artistic relations between the two cities, along with their deeply intertwined reciprocal influence. The exhibition has been curated by SSM Director Dr. Nazan Ölçer, Musei Civici Veneziani Director Prof. Giandomenico Romanelli, Ca’Foscari University Professor Giampiero Bellingeri and the Museo Correr’s Dr. Camillo Tonini. Just as with earlier exhibitions, An Exhibition on "Venice and Istanbul during the Ottoman Period; Love, by any other name”will be accompanied by neighbor day activities, gallery conversations, conferences and educational programs for children. .

The study includes evaluating the e- comments made about the private museums in İstanbul by analyzing the contents by taking advantage of the comments shared in the electronic environment. The comments are divided into building, restaurant and souvenir, management, environment and transportation, wages, collection, personnel sub-dimensions. In this study, the top ten museums that received the most comments from the private museums in Istanbul on the TripAdvisor site were examined.

Synopsis : • Istanbul Natural Resources : • Water
Synopsis : Istanbul I. Natural resources : Water Wild life and open spaces Mineral ressources Monuments II. Human resources : Health Education Culture Economy Istanbul Istanbul is the largest city in Turkey, constituting the country's economic, cultural, and historical heart. Istanbul is a transcontinental city in Eurasia, with its commercial and historical centre lying on the European side and about a third of its population living on the Asian side of Eurasia. With a population of 14.1 million, the city forms the largest urban agglomeration in Europe as well as the largest in the Middle East, and the sixth-largest city proper in the world. Istanbul straddles the Bosphorus strait in northwestern Turkey, between the Sea of Marmara and the Black Sea. Founded on the Sarayburnu promontory around 660 BC as Byzantium, the city now known as Istanbul developed to become one of the most significant cities in history. For nearly sixteen centuries following its reestablishment as Constantinople or Nea Roma ("New Rome") in 330 AD, it served as the capital of three empires: the Roman and Byzantine (330–1204 and 1261–1453), the Latin (1204–1261), and the Ottoman (1453–1922) empires. It was instrumental in the advancement of Christianity during Roman and Byzantine times, before the Ottomans conquered the city in 1453 and transformed it into an Islamic stronghold and the seat of the Ottoman Caliphate. Approximately 11.6 million foreign visitors arrived in Istanbul in 2012, two years after it was named a European Capital of Culture, making the city the world's fifth-most-popular tourist destination.

The Appropriation of the Pagan Honorary Column in Early Constan
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Christianizing the Skyline: The Appropriation of the Pagan Honorary Column in Early Constantinople A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Architecture by Pelin Yoncacı Arslan 2015 © Copyright by Pelin Yoncacı Arslan 2015 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Christianizing the Skyline: The Appropriation of the Pagan Honorary Column in Early Constantinople by Pelin Yoncacı Arslan Doctor of Philosophy in Architecture University of California, Los Angeles, 2015 Professor Diane G. Favro, Chair The freestanding column with culminating statue is generally viewed as a relatively limited genre in Roman art and architecture. The purpose of such a column varies between glorifying a victory and honoring an individual for his or her achievements. While the best-known examples were created in Rome during the Empire, such columns were common in early Byzantine Constantinople as well. This dissertation examines four such monuments: the Columns of Constantine, Theodosius I, Arcadius, and Justinian. These towering monuments were erected in imperial fora along the Mese, the main ceremonial thoroughfare passing across the city of Constantinople. The first part of the dissertation focuses on the art historical and material aspects of column monuments and illustrates the formal and urbanistic innovations applied in Constantinople. Comparison to other column monuments and monuments alike, both in the western and eastern Roman world, situates these built objects within their cultural contexts. The ii second part of the study addresses the visibility of the columns in the ritual and daily experience, focusing on secular and religious urban processions held along the branches of the Mese.

Comparison Between Holistic Museum Visitors and Utilitarian Museum Visitors

Abstract In marketing strategies, the consumer-focus approach reveals customer experience management as a differentiating tool for competitive advantage in increasing competitive environment. In recent years, museums compete with other leisure and educational institutions such as other museums, theatres, cinemas and amusement parks. Thus, customer experience management provides a competitive advantage for museums. In this study, museum visitors are clustered according to their experiential appeals and the differences for their post experience dimensions (learning in museum, visitor satisfaction, visit intensification, revisit intention and word-of-mouth communication) are analyzed. In conclusion, as a support for customer experiences’ competitive advantage, it’s revealed that the results of these dimensions are significantly higher for holistic museum visitors than those for utilitarian museum visitors. Keywords: Customer experience management, Experiential marketing, Museum marketing, Structural equation model 1.

ISTANBUL Notes ISTANBUL Notes
WEDDING WEEK ISTANBUL NOTES ISTANBUL NOTES NEIGHBORHOOD VISITS: SULTANAHMET Heart of old Istanbul - Historical Peninsula • Hagia Sophia (Aya Sofya)- it functions as a museum, not as a mosque; it is absolutely breath taking! • The Blue Mosque (Sultan Ahmet Camii)- one of the greatest mosques. • The Basilica Cistern (Yerebatan Sarnıcı)- very mystical, wouldn’t miss it. • The Grand Bazaar (Kapalı Çarsı)- great for gift shopping; must see! • The Topkapı Palace (Topkapı Sarayı)- it’s quite big, I would do a fast tour of it so there’s time for other things. TAKSIM TO BEYOGLU TO GALATA TO KARAKÖY Diverse and hip district • Taksim Square (Taksim Meydanı)- not the prettiest site, however it is the biggest square in Turkey. It is also where the Istiklal Avenue begins. You should have an unhealthy greasy burger in Kızılkayalar late at night after a few too many drinks. • Istiklal Avenue (Istiklal Caddesi)- Cafe’s, shops, etc. It gets much more interesting as you walk towards it’s west end. Make sure you walk aroud the tiny streets on the west end. • Tunnel Area on Galip Dede Street (Tünel)- It’s the area that leads to from Istiklal Avenue to Galata. Many musical instruments stores and studios in the area. Also the underground Tunnel that leads to Karakoy on the sea shore is the world’s third oldest mass transportation system. • Galata Area (Galata)- Climb up the Galata Tower for a nice view of the old peninsula. • Karaköy Area- Currently trendiest area in Istanbul with small shops and cafes to hang-out. ORTAKÖY TO ARNAVUTKÖY TO BEBEK Stroll along the Bosphorus • Ortaköy to Arnavutköy to Bebek- You can walk if the weather is nice; one hour or so.
