İstanbul Konstantinopolis değil.

Istanbul, Istanbul. What an amazing place. To say that I've seen Istanbul would be a massively misleading statement. Istanbul is an absolutely huge place (its population is a little over five million more than New York City), and even though I spent two days and two nights within city limits, I barely saw any of it. What I did see was astoundingly beautiful.
