A City unique in that she bridges two continents, Europe and Asia, Istanbul stretches along the shores of the Bosphorus which meet the wa ters of the Black Sea and the Sea of Marmara, as well as the Golden Horn on the European side. Istanbul's strategic setting gives way for the reason that she has been the succe- sive capital of three world empires. The city is a fusion between the East and the West, the past and the pre sent. Aside from her historical interests, Istanbul is a fascinating city filled with great beauty and excitement. An elegant display of minarets and domes dominates the city's skyline. Within the city, the bustle of the crowd, the grinding noises coming from the cars as they climb up Istan bul's ancient cobblestone streets, the ceaseless coming and going of the ferries and the chants of the merchants as they pass by all adds to the touches of what makes Is tanbul the colorfuf and exciting port it is today. Istanbul is infinite in her sights: The museums followed by the ancient churches, palaces and mosques are all summarized by the unforgettable excursion down the Bosphorus mao king one's stay not less than three to four days.

BOSPHORUS
A stay in Istanbul should not be completed w ithout the traditional and unforgettable excursion by boat along the Bosphorus, the winding straits separating Europe and Asia. Along its shores one w ill find a delightfully surprising m ix ture o f the past and the present, as well as a range of grand splendor and quaint beauty: The modern hotels and ancient villas o f wood "ya h ", palaces of marble and fortresses, small vacationing spots and the charming fishing villages. The best way of seeing the Bosphorus is to board one of the passenger boats that regularly zigzag up the Bosphorus from the point of Karaköy. Stopping alternatively on the Asian and Europe an side, this round trip excursion takes about 7 hrs. and the fare is very reasonable. Along the excursion you will encounter the magnificent Palace of Dolmabahçe, the residence o f the last Ottoman sultans. Further up the Bosphorus you w ill find the gardens and imperial pavilions of the Y ıld ız Palace. Elegantly spannin the Bosphorus and linking Europe and Asia fo r the first time is the Suspension Bridge. And along the Boshorus are contrasting elements of old and new such as the Ottoman wooden villas or "y a lı" of Arnavutköy and the luxurious apartments of Bebek. Facing each other across the Bosphorus are the fortresses o f Rumeli Hisarı and Anadolu Hisarı. During the summertime there are a series of shows including folklore performances (celebrating the Art and Culture Fes tival of Istanbul from the 20th June to the 15th of July,). Facing each other across the straits are the elegant villas of Emirgan (on the European side) and Kanlıca (on the Asian side) famous fo r its yoghourt. Further along the European side is the beautiful bay of Tarabya, with its yachts at anchor and its many seafront tavernas, continuing on to the charm ing villages o f Büyükdere and Sarıyer. At the same time it is possible to contact agencies which specialize in the organization of "mini-cruises" on the Bosphorus or trips by car along its shores. The shores o f the Bosphorus are filled w ith fine restaurants and night clubs. In the many restaurants along the Bosphorus one can enjoy the delights of good food and entertainment. The traditional fare in such restaurants is "meze" (hors d'oeuvres) followed by freshly grilled fish and accompanied by the excellent Turkish white wines or the traditinal "rakı" (aniset), which is drunk with water and ice. A colorful array of meze is presented, choosing such tempting disher as "m idye dolması" (stuffed mussels), "taram a" (fish roe salad), "çerkez tavuğu" (Circassian chicken-cold chicken in walnut puree with garlic), and "yaprak dolması" (stuffed vine leaves). The fish is always fresh and we would recommend you the "lüfer" (blue-fish), "kalkan" (turbot), "levrek" (bass) and "barbunya" (red mullet). The colorful night clubs, "gazino", provide splendid enter tainment thoughout the whole dinner ranging from a selection of Turkish songs to the famous and unforgettable belly dance.

On the Asian side, there are departures from Üsküdar and from Kadıköy.
