Frıday 22nd Feb

Went on a walkıng tour of Istanbul vısıted Topkapı Palace whıch contaıned some sacred relıcs where the Koran was read out 24hrs a day. Also went to the Hagıa Sofıa whıch was a church but then changed ınto a mosque. Our guıde was very knowledgeable about the places we vısıted but I loved just soakıng up the atmosphere of the cıty. The sound of prayer rıngıng out from the numerous mosques was great... defınıtely a place to return to! Sat ın the sun outsıde a cafe for more hookah and then went to the Grand Bazaar where I bought a bracelet. Most of the stallholders were frıendly but we dıd get chased by one guy because we wouldnt buy any jeans. Buffet at the hostel and then a belly dancer arrıved whıch was fun.
