Ahahaah triggered a lot of Google Moderators here @sonnyNg @FelipePK @Sorbe @TsekoV!
Looks like Istanbul is a loved destination here!
When I was there last time the political situation was completely different, and I miss that time; without being too specific or politic, did you felt something wrong in the air?

Hey @LucioV
There was some police around like in every big city, but I have never had a feeling that something could go wrong.
The only crazy stuff as @FelipePK stated previously was the traffic. I have never seen something like that in my life so far.

Last time I was in Istanbul I drove a scooter, but I can agree that I'm really used to heavy and crazy traffic.
Two weeks ago, by mistake, I drove my Jeep in the historical center of Naples, in a traffic closed area, on sunday.
You can imagine, I had to drive backwards, once, in a street larger no more than 200 cm, crowdy.

Hi @LucioV,
Well, let's say that I got some problems because I took a photo of one famous school, I think it was called Galatasaray and it seems that the president or something like that studied there before. It was super beautiful but the place was surrounded by the army. So I was kind chased and forced to delete the photo. hehe
Regarding the rest of the trip everything was super fine.

I really hope one day you could visit those beautiful places @DoriyaKiz. Me personally I visited before the Blue Mosque, it is just outstanding.
By the way, where do you come from?

@LucioV Yes, I have been to Istanbul 3 times. I love the Blue Mosque and all of its beauty. The minarets are lovely, long, and slender.
