Istanbul is considered one of the most promising real estate markets in Europe and in the world, especially in Europe in general. Its strategic location at the crossroads of Europe and Asia is one of the most important attractions, as it is home to nearly 15 million people, in addition to its charming nature and rich resources.

Istanbul is a city with a rich history. It began in the 7th century BC with the founding of the Greek city of Byzantium. Subsequently, the city changed its name to New Rome and Constantinople, and in the 13th century, the Arabs began to call it Istinpolin. It is believed that later this name was gradually fixed in a distorted version as Istanbul or Istanbul, and the city was finally and officially renamed Istanbul only in 1930.
 

During its existence, the city became the capital of the Roman, Byzantine, Latin, and Ottoman empires. Each of these periods has left its mark on architecture and culture, making it now one of the most interesting cities in the world for tourists, and definitely the most interesting for sightseeing lovers in Turkey.

Istanbul is the largest city in Turkey, the most important economic and cultural center of the country. Contrary to the grossest erroneous opinion, this is not the capital of Turkey. The capital of the country is Ankara. Istanbul is located on the border of two parts of the world - Europe and Asia, being in both at once. The city is divided into European and Asian parts by the Bosphorus, which connects the Black Sea with the Sea of ​​Marmara and the outside world.

Istanbul has a very developed urban and tourist infrastructure. Urban public transport allows you to get from airports and move around the city without using a taxi at all. Everywhere there are shops, markets, banks, currency exchanges, signs, and names of institutions, as a rule, are duplicated in English everywhere.
