Turkiet / Turkey |
||
När man gick över Gyllene Hornet på Galatabron hamnade man i järnaffärskvarteren. When you walked across the Golden Horn on the Galata Bridge you ended up in the iron business quarters. |
Taste is like the bottom, split. |
|
Vi hamnade mitt i en filminspelning på våra strövtåg i stan. Säkert en Oscarskandidat.
We ended up in the middle of a movie recording on our stroll trough
town. |
This kind of barbecue, we would like to have, but how do you get it on
the plane? What a job they spent making this.
And check it's Cornelis selling them too! |
|
En tur på Bosporen gjorde vi också, mycket se- och prisvärt. Speciellt som vädret blev kanon, som en skön vårdag i Sverige. A trip on the Bosphorus, we did too, very see-and affordable. Especially as the weather was great, like a beautiful spring day in Sweden. |
Here an example of how the residents on Istanbul Asian side live. All
the houses on thenhillside overlooking the sea. |

Turkarna gillade att mata måsarna, måsarna tog maten i flykten. I bakgrunden bron mellan Europa och Asien. Den var väldigt trafikerad. The Turks loved to feed the seagulls, gulls took the food in flight. In the background the bridge between Europe and Asia. It was very busy. |
A photo with magical twilight skies and the Blue Mosque in silhouette.
And in the background you can hear the Muadh-dhin calling all believers
to prayer. |

Har aldrig blivit rakad med rakkniv förut. Så det måste jag givetvis prova. Häftigt när frisören brände bort hår i öronen med brinnande stickor. Have never been shaved with a razor before. So I must of course try. It was cool when the hairdresser burned the hairs in your ears with burning sticks. |
Freshly cut and clean-shaven I had to taste the national drink Raki. It
taste a bit like ouzo or Pernod, with its liquorice flavour. |
|
Alla får ju inte dricka sprit pga. sin tro. Men röka vattenpipa går bra, undrar vad hon stoppat pipan med!
Everybody can drink alcohol because their faith. |
They don't seems to be careful with the security, none of the girls have
safety harness. But maybe they don't need it because they're on the roof
of a mosque, being protected from above. |
|
Turkarna drog sina kärror hur långt som helst. Och inte bara de små som den här. Men det är klart, när man är framme kan man ju alltid ta det lugnt med en bok. The Turks pulled their carts to any length. And not just the little ones like this. But of course, when they arrive to their specific corner they can always relax with a good book. |
Their taste isn't like our austere Scandinavian. That you understand
when you see the quilts. Here you saves not ruffles. |
|
Metron som spårvagnen kallas befinner sig här inom avspärrat område, ändå såg man både bilar, mc och mopeder åkandes på spåren. Var alla uttryckningsfordon, månntro?
Metro which the tram is called here in the cordoned off area, still we
saw both cars, motorcycles and mopeds occupant on the tracks. |
One day we went to a modern shopping centre, Forum, that would be the
largest, at least for a couple of years ago. Looks the same in Sweden
and the prices were about the same, too. |
|
Även dessa lampor visar också hur turkisk smak ser ut. Mycket utsmyckning gärna med guld eller/och silver. These lamps also shows how Turkish flavour looks like. Very rich decoration with gold or/and silver. |
Back in the old Istanbul we caught the Bosphorus and the other side
shows the Asian Istanbul. |
|
Detta är en begravningsplats så vem är det som tvättar och tittar på parabol-TV? This is a cemetery so who is it that washes and watching satellite TV? |
Click the picture and enjoy a moment in Istanbul! |
