Spring in Istambul (Turkey)

Trying to reach Europe’s borders we travelled to Istambul this time. Transcontinental city (covers Europe and Asia) in the Bosphorus strait is one of the most historically important cities in the world. Being the only city that has been capital of 3 different civilizations: Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman empires.
