Bosphorus

#wecreate One of the must do when visiting the heart of Türkiye. I have never felt like I’m in a movie when taking any ferry ride in other places. But taking the ferry ride crossing from the European to Asian side of Istanbul is a memorable experience for me. The ferry just cost within 6 lira (one way) for around 15 minutes if you’re taking the ferry from Eminonu (European side) to Uskudar (Asian side). I went around 4pm and visited Maiden’s Tower which about 15 minutes walk. After visited Maiden’s tower I head back to the ferry port. Before heading back to Eminonu I decided to enjoy some dessert and hot chocolate in a cafe nearby the ferry station and it’s so worth it. I head back around 6pm. There’s also busker onboard the ferry playing local Turkish songs with flute and guitar while I enjoy the sunset sky overviewing both sides of Istanbul. First timer tips to Istanbul: Stay in the European side of Istanbul so that you will be near to any attractions / if you join any join in tour the pickup is available. Plus most local that is in Europe side able to speak/understand English so its convenient for you in case you need help to go around or buy something from the shop.

Bosphorus is a natural strait connecting the Black Sea to the Sea of Marmara. It's one of the most popular areas of Istanbul both for its inhabitants and visitors. The narrow channel of the Bosphorus allocates two cities of Turkey and two continents, both Asia and Europe. We took a night voyage to rejoice in this unforgettable geographical strait. Indeed an outstanding experience!

Near the old city of Grand Bazaar, on both sides of the Bosphorus, corn chestnuts can be seen everywhere. Trams and buses criss-cross, all black-wrapped Muslims and trendy Turkish girls come and go, many people are rushing to the bus, and many people are running along the pier to reach the other side of the strait.  There are many people fishing on the shore, for sustenance and as a pastime. They throw bait towards the raging currents, and wait for the fish to hook. Whenever we walk past them, the anglers are willing to show us the fish they caught.

March is a relatively hot season for travel, without extreme heat or crowded crowds, it is most suitable to go abroad for travel. 【Greece】 The two parishes in Greece, on the eve of Easter every year, both churches will hold a competition to "shoot" at the spire of the other church, called rouketopolemos starting around 8 pm (nearby churches start shooting thousands of fireworks, causing the town's sound to rise with comets and rocket explosions, the scene is very spectacular) 【Canada】 At the end of March, cherry blossoms gradually bloom in Vancouver, until they turn this city into a beautiful garden. Every year in April, a grand cherry blossom festival is held here. Riding a bike under the blooming cherry blossoms is really wonderful. 【Morocco】 In the spring of Marrakech, the blue and white town of Chefchaouen is decorated with flowers like a poem, visiting is like being in a fairy tale world of One Thousand and One Nights. 【Turkey】 The spring in Istanbul is like a melodious poem, with suitable temperature, cherry blossoms blooming on the side of the Bosphorus Strait, the blend of ancient and modern atmosphere is impressive. 【Iceland】 The early spring in Iceland is the ideal season to capture the spectacle of ice and fire.

The palace was built between 1863 and 1867, when the Ottoman sultans had the habit of building their own palaces instead of using the previous generation's palaces. Ciragan Palace is the last attempt of this tradition. The palace was destroyed by a large fire in 1901, leaving only the outer walls. In 1989, it was purchased and renovated by a Japanese company, and a modern hotel building was newly built in the garden, managed by Kempinski. In 2023, the hotel just completed the renovation of all public areas and rooms in the new building, and the decoration is brand new. During the trip planning, I was always torn between the Four Seasons on the Strait and Kempinski. Later, considering that Kempinski has the membership treatment of GHA, and I really want to experience the renovated rooms, I chose Ciragan Palace. In the end, I found it was a choice I didn't regret at all. As soon as I entered the room, the sense of luxury came to my face. The color scheme is the dark red exclusively used by the Ottoman royal family, which is the same model in the new Dolmabahce Palace. All furniture should be specially customized, the octagonal wooden side table with the characteristic Ottoman pattern seems to really take you back to the aristocratic era 200 years ago. The luxurious bed with a canopy faces the open Bosphorus Strait, and it is a different kind of enjoyment to lie on the bed and watch the cruise ships come and go in the strait. In general, this time in Ciragan Palace is a pretty perfect experience, and I should choose here again next time I come to Istanbul. The previously old rooms dragged down this hotel with a deep historical background, but with the standard of renovation, it truly deserves to be in the first echelon in the city.
