so we are starting off istanbul right in the middle of the historic area
with hagia sophia and the blue
mosque so the hagia sofia is actually a mosque so it's open to the public 24 7.
you don't have to pay to enter you just need to be like dressed appropriately
so for girls you have to cover your head what do you think
coolest mosque you've ever been in so he's the first one the first mosque you've ever been in
now we're walking over to the blue mosque which is the most famous mosque in turkey
and it's literally directly across from hajiya sophia like they're facing each other there's
also free entry here but you can only enter during certain times like you can't go during prayer time
where do we go
is this because of the construction this is all we can go to
it's closed for a year for restoration there's like one tiny room
so just a short walk away you come to topkapi palace
which is actually like a palace museum but it's another must-see in istanbul
we're going to find harem which is an extra 850. so it better be cool
right now we're walking through the palace gardens which they're kind of just like a nice park
but you don't have to pay to enter here so if
you don't want to pay for the palace you can still come here
8 30. it's so dark where are you walking behind the creepy fishermen
there's still a line even at like 9 p.m crazy
so we are going to stop and get some tea at this
really cute place that's right next to galata tower the tower is there
and we're finally walking home along the famous shopping street is deklau which is still really
busy we got up early today to get brunch and then go take a lot of tower when it opens
and this is istiklal street in the morning it's like 8 15 a.m
so we are heading to one of the rooftop cafes to hopefully have a great view
we're not really sure what to expect here
it is
but you got a chicken wrap for five and fifty right fifty and i got a green salad for like
and we read that you have to pay to go take pictures up here but
we said can we go and he just said yeah so i don't know
it was 159 so just a couple minutes from the rooftop is the famous grand bazaar
which is one of the largest markets in the whole world
it's minty is right hummus with kidney beans okay i love it sunset cloves
we have walked by this restaurant so many times
and this is the first time we've seen this happening
we're ending the day like usual with some turkish tea
there are so many cute tea places all over istanbul and we love
a it of all the food
where are we walking we're walking an hour to or decoy mosque
the lights literally just turned on like right now as you're taking pictures
we're getting dinner right next to the moss and it's actually like not even expensive here either
i thought it would be really expensive what is this stuff called goslaming with some cheese
that we didn't know what it was because there were two cheese options
so we were just like what's better and we got this it's good though
apple tea and a french press with actual apples that is the spot oh
yeah it is saturday night better video of the cat marks
i'm good
we're in asia we're back in istanbul but on the asian side of istanbul it's
the first asian side breakfast feo there's 21 tables waiting to eat here that's crazy
it's almost 2pm on a sunday and literally all the cute french faces have such a weight
and after going to like how many brunch places did we try and go to
three ten no we tried to go to maybe like three places or something and everywhere it was so busy
we made it literally 10 feet and stopped at a chocolate place
is like the area yeah i don't know we just got the cheapest meal we've had i think ever right 43
lira for two huge food and two sodas
you can see the biggest mosque in turkey which is on the asian side
but it's a museum library mosque art gallery
bye
i can't see so carly's just said why does no one know about this mosque
yeah so that was crazy this mosque is so nice
but like i don't know i guess no one comes to this one because it's on this side
definitely better than the blue mosque with it being under construction right now
yeah no one here
especially if you come right now at sunset all the lights are in the mosque and all the city
looks so nice
pasta so good the most instagrammable cafe ever you don't want to go
we got up early before work to try and get our last turkish breakfast
so what do we have bread veggies good
we have a lot to do today so we're gonna take some food home for lunch
we have no idea what we're doing
is it working he's got a ton of stuff for six euros what like two different chickens
rice vulgar veggies chickpeas two sodas um but we have to work so we're going home
and then we'll take a video of everything we got chicken burger veggies chickpeas rice with chicken
he mixed everything together and it's so good finally boarding a flight to egypt
