Город сказка, город весна, попадая в его сети пропадаешь навсегда The city is a fairy tale, the city of spring, falling into its network you disappear forever

There is no Schengen, the weekend was accidentally scheduled, I didn’t want to sit in Ukraine...
Plane and Istanbul!
The hotel fully corresponds to the description, but in truth the Wi-Fi did not work in the room (a trifle). Breakfast is super: fruits and vegetables and meat and cheeses and so on. The restaurant is also top notch. The staff is well-trained, although roguish ("my brother has a good shop with very cheap leather, free delivery"). Opposite the hotel is the university and almost opposite the tram stop. But these are all the little things in life, BUT I did not expect this from Istanbul...
Modern, with a well-developed infrastructure and oriental flavor, the sea, bridges, ferries, Turkish delight, mosques, cable cars, roasted chestnuts. The city did not impress me right away, but after returning from it I dream of returning back...
. . . Tsargrad, Constantinople, Istanbul
