In addition to being one of the world's largest city, Istanbul is also a city that stays awake for 24 hours. There is always something going on in this ancient city of three continents and 10 million people.
If you love food, Istanbul has got you covered! The variety of restaurants and bars here is staggering—and more importantly, you can enjoy them any time of day or night. In fact, there are plenty of places that stay open into the wee hours of the morning and serve up everything from traditional Turkish fare to modern fusion cuisine at reasonable prices.
Plus, with its rich history dating back 3 millennia, Istanbul is crammed full with things to do that'll keep you busy all day long (you may even forget what time it actually is). You could visit a museum or two; grab coffee at one of its charming cafés; check out some amazing architecture; shop at some excellent bazaars; take in a performance by one of its famous orchestras or dance troupes; see an opera by Puccini or Mozart performed live...the list goes on!
