Holiday packages to Istanbul from Bahrainfrom BHD 166

Known for its East-meets-West contrasts and a deep-rooted legacy from the Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman empires, Istanbul is a magical city and the meeting point of Europe and Asia.
Home to UNESCO-listed monuments and landmarks, you’ll find no shortage of history and cultural heritage while you roam the streets of Istanbul. Museums like the Topkapi Palace and art galleries in Istiklal Avenue showcase masterpieces created by some of the world’s most appreciated artists; temples of worship, such as the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia, dot the cityscape; and a sea of colour fills the covered streets of one of the oldest and largest markets in the world, the Grand Bazaar.
With the mighty Bosporus dividing the city in half, you’ll find no shortage of natural beauty and breathtaking views. Take a ferry ride and watch the seagulls play in the wind as you pass by palaces and minarets, or simply stroll along the banks to watch the city unfold while the sun sets on the stunning skyline of one of the most iconic cities in the world.
