What Is The Average Price For Skii

Constantinople, the Bosporus and the Black Sea

We spent six days at sea to arrive at our destination from Lesbos. Now, for a few days, we are dedicated to visiting the city that has taken the baton of power from Rome, the capital of the Roman Empire then the center of the Ottoman Empire. Where to meet Europe and Asia, and different religions. From here ships over the centuries have started going to bring war and terror along the coasts of the Mediterranean. Here they returned with their prey collected in the raids won, but sometimes losses and reduced in number and equipment.



We visit the Topkapi Palace, Blue Mosque, Saint Sophia, the streets the old city around the Galata Bridge and the Golden Horn. From the top of Galata Tower overlooking the Bosphorus and lengthen the look in the Sea of \u200b\u200bMarmara and the nearby islands. The Istanbul Modern has its charms and stretches along the two coasts, the European and Asian foods.


Then it's time to resume navigation. Before putting the bow south ascend the Bosporus, braving the traffic of ships and ferries that cross from side to side. Past the crossroads of the Horn of hours but the traffic is reduced. Opposing the current, sometimes impetuous and strong, we come to border the Black Sea for the night we pause in the pleasant little fishing port of Poyraz.


The Bosporus is the continuation of Istanbul. Old houses and palaces overlooking the water on both sides. Two high bridges always full of vehicle traffic in both directions. Then the old fortifications for the control of maritime traffic and widen the entrance to the quiet of the Black Sea

ascent past In Europe, upon your return, we are on the Asian side, literally pushed by the vortices of water that falls like a river. before returning in the Sea of \u200b\u200bMarmara the last picture in the background of the domes and towers that characterize the landscape of Constantinople / Istanbul.
