  • Istanbul Public Transportation Map Pdf
    Istanbul public transportation map pdf Continue Istanbul's public transport network rail and metrobus (rapid transport bus) transit network Istanbul rail and metrobus (bus fast) transit network - The public transport scheme in Istanbul includes a bus network, various rail systems, cable cars, and maritime services to serve more than 13 million city residents extending to an area of 5,712 km2. The history of Tunnel is the oldest surviving underground urban railway line in continental Europe. Public road transport in Istanbul was signed on August 30, 1869, when a contract was signed for the construction of a tram system in the capital of the Ottoman Empire. By this agreement, The Societe de Trams of Constantinople by Konstantin Crepano Effendi received a concession to operate public transport for forty years. The opening of four lines of equestrian trams took place in 1871. In the first year, the trams transported 4.5 million people on the Azapkapa-Galata, Aksarai-Edikule, Aksaray-Topkape and Eminani-Axarai lines. Additional lines were added in the following years. 430 horses were used to draw 45 wagons, including a 15-year-old type and some two-story, on a 1000 mm (3 foot 3⁄8 in) meter track track. In 1912, the horse tram was put into operation for one year, as the Ministry of Defense sent all horses to the front during the Balkan War. The nostalgic tram on Istiklal Avenue Tram network was electrified by an overhead contact wire on February 2, 1914. The tram began italics on the Anatolian part of Istanbul on June 8, 1928 between Shkudar and Kesykle.

  • A Travel Guide to the Ancient City Istanbul City Guide
    ISTANBUL GUIDE A TRAVEL GUIDE TO THE ANCIENT CITY ISTANBUL CITY GUIDE An Istanbul city break is everything you could possibly wish for if you are looking for a break in a fascinating ancient city with a modern twist. It’s a place packed full of indulgent cuisine, exceptional architecture, rich culture, friendly locals and great vibe. THINGS TO SEE IN Istanbul is in a unique position, straddling two continents of Asia ISTANBUL and Europe. It was on the European side of the mighty Bosphorus Straights where the Byzantium, an ancient Greek colony was founded in 657 BC. Reintroduced to the world in 330 AD as the new capital of the Holy Roman Empire by Emperor Constantine the Great, the city became known as Constantinople. Rapidly growing to become the wealthiest city in Europe, sitting at a hugely strategic point along the silk road trading routes between east and west. There are so many things to see and do here. It all depends on how long your Istanbul city break is going to be. Also, you should think of how you are going to tackle all the attractions and bunch them up into areas to save excessive journeys. Despite the sheer size, Istanbul is surprisingly easy to get around. We personally prefer to have a laid back visit, especially to big cities. Taking it easy is the only way to tame a city as huge as Istanbul. 2 We usually have a busy morning exploring the high ceiling and colonnades while bathing in the sights, then spend a couple of hours in the light of medieval chandeliers.
