The Sights, Sounds, and Smells of Istanbul

A quick picture review trying its best to capture snip its of Istanbul.


Pottery.


Lights.

Spices.


Turkish Delights.



Cheese.




Baklava. (Original baklava is made from "40" layers of yufka dough. The dough should be so thin that it should be transperant. In between, pistachio or walnuts are laid.)

Textile Vendors.


Tiles.

The Bosporus.

These pictures don't even begin to do Istanbul justice, but it gives you a very small glimpse into what it has to offer.
