Where to stay at Istanbul?
Where to stay at Istanbul?
Yes, it is a big question for the tourists to choose the right town and the right hotel to stay at.
There are generally two options: Taksim and the old town. Many tourists prefer old town. But as a citizen of Istanbul, i dont think that it is a good idea.The old town has Hagia Sophia, Sultanahmet mosque ( blue mosque), Grand Bazaar etc. many historical attraction points but you will not be able to experience the real city life in Istanbul there. Those place mostly focus on tourists and most of the citizens of Istanbul do not spend their time there.
In my opinion, you should stay around Taksim. You can experience the real Turkish lifestyle in Istiklal Street and Taksim Square. We, the citizens of Istanbul also often visit Taksim Square and Istiklal Street to have fun, meal, to attend concerts etc.
