I will be in Istanbul in the middle of August was hoping for some advice. I have looked at the main things to do and was looking moreso for advice on things that are not so well known.
Anything that you would recommend I have to check out?
Any areas that should be avoided?
Also for currency, what is most popular, should I take a combination of USD$, Euros & Lira?
Any other tips/tricks that I should be aware of? I will be right near the Bosphorus river
Thanks!
