I am history lover and I like to visit historical places all over the world. Before couple of months I visit in Turkey with my family. We go to Istanbul. It is the largest city in this country. I like shopping very much and I also prefer to pedestrian shopping street. The Grand Bazaar in Istanbul is one of the largest and oldest covered markets in the world, with 61 covered streets and over 3,000 shops which attract between 250,000 and 400,000 visitors daily. We bought many things like clothes, shoes, jewelries and many more things. I love this country.

Nice sharing jACKEY321 ! Your post is very informative for my tour. I hope your shared information is very helpful for all tourists. I visited Turkish and Islamic Arts Museum, this building is really exceptional. It is located in Sultana met squarely. The collection of this museum is very nice. The art collection is huge. The art collection shows the culture of Turkey. Islamic calligraphy is shown really an attraction. Here the tiles, and rugs also gorgeous. I think it is the best place for visiting.
