I am happy to have gone there before all these political movements and instability in Turkey. On my trip I have witnessed some procession of protest too. The trip itself was amazing.
Great photo. Sadly I missed visiting there when we were in Istanbul a few years ago.
Me too! I so want to go back there, and I live a 4 hour flight from Istanbul. But every time I want to visit something happens, and we get a bit wary.
My Turkish colleague keeps saying it’s nothing. But then she’s from there.

We didn’t know what’s in there which turned out to be photogenic 🙂
Hello Michael-
I love this picture and just regret that I did not take any photos when I was there in 2007 on a cruise.
I think the book Angels and Demons ended the story there too.
Love the history.
As Ever,
Sharron
