Arrival at Ataturk airport I chose to take the Havabus to the Aksaray neighborhood and from there a taxi to the hotel that was in the sultanahmet neighborhood, the tourist neighborhood par excellence. That was my first and last experience in a turkish taxiwho gave me a thousand turns until the number on the meter seemed enough, to then leave me at the hotel.
It was 6:00 p.m., I just checked, left my bags at the hotel and went for a walk immediately! It was 2 blocks from the neighborhood square where they are located Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque.

When I returned from the bazaar it was 8:00 p.m. and it was already dark, the square with its great fountain was full of colored lights and Hagia Sophia and the Mosque with incredible lighting. I sat on a bench in the square to enjoy the show. That’s how I had my first encounter with a turkif you want to read the anecdote continue here A lonely woman in Istanbul.
