Turkiye 2023: Fener-Balat Neighborhood Tour, part 2

Continued from last week....

The rest of the tour was walking through the different streets, which I found very enjoyable.

We were told that this is a popular spot for Instagram because one of the houses here was used in a popular Turkish telenovela.

Another photo shoot on the street.

I'm guessing pre-nup photo shoot?

We hiked up to a viewpoint for a great vista of the Golden Horn where there is a fairly large mosque there too, but sadly we did not enter it. This was where we ended the walking tour.

  6. Those streets are definitely made for walking. I wouldn't go very fast I'd be looking at all the different buildngs and the businesses and taking lots of photos.
