So beautiful. And easily replicated by me one day, I hope :) Again, so beautiful.

Love, love, love these rooms. Classical taste really does stand the test of time.

Good reply, Lisa. I for one cannot wait for when the pendulum swings.

I second the "great question". Look forward to reading more comments. Thanks, Moniasalden & Mizinformation, for the great comments so far.

Thanks, Anna. These two articles have been my favorites so far on AT.

Contact solution (and other toiletries similar) are crazy expensive in Europe... and found only at the doctor's office. (At least in CZ.)

I'd recommend expat websites for Q&A & recommendations.

I second all the mentions so far & would also add the Chora Church. That & the Haggia Sophia are awesome examples of the Byzantine.

It may be a bit difficult with summertime daylight, but try to coordinate your Bosphorus cruise to return at sunset.
