LET'S DISCOVER ISTANBUL

We would like to tell you about our city and our customs!

Turkish people like to spend time by the coast of beautiful Bosphorous.

The bridge connects two continents Europe and Asia.

The Maiden's Tower is in Marmara Sea. It is a small tower that is used as a restaurant these days.

There is a famous myth about the tower. 

There was a king and he built the tower for her daughter to protect her but she was bitten by a snake eventually.

Hagia Sophia is a mosque now but it used to be a church in Byzantian time. 

It is famous for its red color.

The Basilica Cistern was used to provide water for the Byzantinian Palace. 

And there is a belief that when people go there throw coins into the water, their wishes come true.

Istıklal Street is a very crowded tourist attraction. Only the pedestrians are allowed and you can also take the nostalgic train. This street has some of the oldest buildings in Istanbul.

Ferries are an important part of the transportation. A lot of people take the ferries to go across the sea in such short time. 

Also it is a pleasure for us to have tea and Turkish bagels on ferries. We can feed seagulls as well.

And of course Mustafa Kemal Atatürk is the most important person for our country. 

He is the father of the Turkish nation.

This is Dolmabahçe Palace. He lived here for many years and passed away here. It is by the beautiful Bosphorus.

We are looking forward to seeing you here in Istanbul !!!

'Istanbul' through the eyes of Ambarlı Primary School 2/I class students

ICONS OF İSTANBUL

İSTANBUL'U DİNLİYORUM

İstanbul'u dinliyorum, gözlerim kapalı

Önce hafiften bir rüzgar esiyor;

 Yavaş yavaş sallanıyor Yapraklar, ağaçlarda;

 Uzaklarda, çok uzaklarda,

 Sucuların hiç durmayan çıngırakları

 İstanbul'u dinliyorum, gözlerim kapalı.

 İstanbul'u dinliyorum, gözlerim kapalı;

 Kuşlar geçiyor, derken;

Yükseklerden, sürü sürü, çığlık çığlık.

Ağlar çekiliyor dalyanlarda;

Bir kadının suya değiyor ayakları;

 İstanbul'u dinliyorum, gözlerim kapalı.

 İstanbul'u dinliyorum, gözlerim kapalı;

 Serin serin Kapalıçarşı

Cıvıl cıvıl Mahmutpaşa

Güvercin dolu avlular

Çekiç sesleri geliyor doklardan

 Güzelim bahar rüzgarında ter kokuları;

 İstanbul'u dinliyorum, gözlerim kapalı.

                                 ORHAN VELİ KANIK

I’M LISTENING TO ISTANBUL

 I’m listening to Istanbul, with my eyes closed;

 First there is a soft breeze;

Slowly slowly swings the leaves On the trees;

 Far, very far away,

The nonstop bells of the watermen;

I’m listening to Istanbul, with my eyes closed.

 I’m listening to Istanbul, with my eyes closed;

The birds fly by, then

 High, in groups, loud.

 Fishnets are pulled in at the harbors;

A woman’s feet touches the sea;

I’m listening to Istanbul, with my eyes closed;

I’m listening to Istanbul, with my eyes closed;

 The cool air of the covered bazaar;

Mahmutpasa so loud;

Courtyard full of pigeons

Sounds pulling away from the docks

Beloved spring air, the odor of sweat;

I’m listening to Istanbul, with my eyes closed;
