Istanbul

Am currently en route from Abu Dhabi to Krakow, Poland, often called the Crown Jewel of Poland. Mostly traveling by train, my planned stopovers after Istanbul include (Sarajevo) Bosnia, (Belgrade) Serbia, (Zagreb) Croatia, (Ljubljana) Slovenia, and (Prague) the Czech Republic, before heading east to Poland. I have visited Istanbul several times in the past, as far back as 1988, and the city just seems to get better and better. During this most recent 3 day visit I spent a lot of time near the port area and managed to find a 90 minute sunset ferry tour of the Bosphorus for about $5.
