Where The Continents Meet

I'd never been to Where The Continents Meet before today .

This blogger writes about where two continents meet, Istanbul, Turkey. I really like his blog set up, the color scheme and the layout. But even more interesting are the tidbits he includes about this fascinating area. My favorite things he includes on his blog are the photos, the interviews with other bloggers from other areas of the world, and the news articles pertaining to his area of the world. Nice set up. Where Two Continents Meet.

That I'd like to see.

Istanbul

I've never been to Istanbul.

This port city is an enchantment for many visitors. Here you can see the skyline pierced with minarets as you pull into port. Many tourists are amazed at the architechture, in particular of the Blue Mosque. Pay attention to the frescoes and mosaics of the Chora Church. And not to be missed is the Grand Bazaar.

That I'd like to see.
