A small cozy mosque with a Christian spirit
In the past, a Christian church, now it is a functioning mosque. Unlike others, here it breathes maternal warmth. On the way from the Hippodrome to this mosque, it was interesting to get lost in the district, where gray-haired wooden wrecks coexist with prestigious two-story villas.

Wonderful view and lots of pigeons
For me, the view of this mosque from the Galata Bridge has become the main and most characteristic view of Istanbul. Not only because it was the first thing we saw every morning when leaving the hotel.

Around Istanbul without traffic jams
Metro in Istanbul, mostly elevated, in the form of trams. The branches belong to different owners who did not agree, so the transfers are not always convenient, and you always have to pay again.

Hippodrome has been here for a long time
Our map clearly says "Hippodrome" but doesn't really show exactly where to look for it. In search of a hippodrome, we walked three circles around Sultanahmet Square, and were already going to pester passers-by with questions.

Lonely beauty in the strait
The tower stands on the Asian side, right in the waters of the Bosphorus, not far from the coast. Nothing particularly significant happened in it, and it cannot be called architecturally beautiful either.

Palace No. 1
In my opinion, the palace of the Sultan does not pull. It will fit on some large estate, but not on a palace. A more or less worthwhile museum with two huge diamonds, a collection of dishes, cool gifts that were given to the sultans.

Conflict of two religions in stone
When they say “the largest” or “the most ancient”, they involuntarily push for comparison, disputes and the desire to refute. What is Hagia Sophia compared to? Perhaps, only with St.

Palace No. 2
When the sultans got tired of the Topkapi Palace, they decided to build a new, cool “with European-style renovation”. It turned out expensive and tasteless. Therefore, we did not go inside, but sent friends.

German architecture in Istanbul
Huge, by the standards of Istanbul, and the majestic building of the station now looks deserted. German architecture contrasts very much with everything that the Turks built.

Very beautiful
A very beautiful and authentic functioning station in the center of Istanbul, which at one time was the final destination of the Orient Express. It's a pity, but we were here without a guide and without the Internet, and only contemplated.

The main attraction of Istanbul
The Bosphorus is what makes Istanbul Istanbul. Huge, powerful, exciting. Wherever you find yourself, at first you come closer to the water and look spellbound. You can look at the Bosphorus for a long time.

A bazaar that has a beginning but no end
The Mysyr Carshysy bazaar has an entrance, but no exit, because the whole center of Istanbul is a big bazaar. Contrary to expectations, the Turks do not cling to hands and do not beg you to buy souvenirs.

For Turkish clothes
There are few well-known brands, no toy stores and no electronics. But there are many Chinese and local inexpensive clothing brands. You can't tell right away what you can buy and what you can't.

Small and cozy Hagia Sophia
A small but homely cozy mosque is located a little away from the main route in the Sultanahmed district. Inside there is a thick soft carpet, warm colors, fresh painting.

Prism Lvov
Lviv is an easy and positive city. And if your mood does not match, then in "P'yanka Cherry" you can easily and quickly "adjust" it. You can also take this mood with you in half-liter bottles.

So that Lviv does not seem small
Climbing up is not the easiest thing to do. But from above, the entire center is perfectly visible and far beyond it. A great place for photos from above and observations of the unhurried life of the Lviv center.

A restaurant without prices where you have to haggle
A colorful Jewish restaurant in the center of Lviv. The cuisine is simple but delicious - stomach soup, salad with giblets, etc. But the most interesting thing is that there are no prices on the menu!

Marmalade Arabba
We lived near Kronplatz, in San Vigilio di Marebbe, and for one day we went to Arabba, which is relatively close. From Arabba you can ski around the Sella Ronda, or you can go over the mountain to the top of Marmolada (3250).

Weird Resort
We went to Alta Badia for one day. If you go from Kronplatz (Vigiglio di Marebbe), then this is the closest resort in the Dolomiti superski region. There is a large free parking lot in La Villa a little further than the main lift, below, right next to the track.

Well!
We went to Kronplatz with some skepticism, because before that we had been to Sö lden and Ischgl, and clearly understood that the resort would be smaller here. But they left with a vengeance!

Great alternative to Protasov and Vyshgora
What can be a ski resort near Kyiv? Merry, tasty, too, can be, but definitely not fast ...That's what he is, this Gvozdov. Cozy, one ski run with a yoke 200 meters long, a children's paddling pool 20.

Belgorod-Dniester fortress
Huge territory, majestic towers, everything is perfectly preserved. Excellent sea views. I advise you to set aside at least 2 hours, and not during the hottest time of the day.

Cozy historical center
Don't miss it, all roads start from there. It somehow reminded me of the Mariinsky Park in Kyiv, but not so crowded, and therefore a more spiritual place. The guns did not impress at all .

Exciting excursion
I don’t know where the practice of sensory deprivation appeared earlier - in Eastern religions or in the Christian one. The most advanced Christians practiced in caves, including here in Chernihiv.

Be careful, the carpet is only for the priest
Active monastery. Clean, peaceful, beautiful. Inside the cathedral there is a feeling of a museum, in which the exhibits are not only the cathedral and icons, but also nuns.
