Istanbul is one of my favorite cities, it is a city full of history, chime and interact. To this day Istanbul has the Grand Mosque, but there is also Haga Sofia, the Churches and the Sinagogue. The city is also a historical monument of the revival and decline of civilization, of the Romans, Constantinople and Ottomans. A city that also reminds us there is nothing eternal in this life, except the change itself.
Turkey is in the election campaign. All presidential candidates, including Erdogan, affirm Turkey's position and ambition to be part of Europe, in addition to the current NATO section. Realized or not very difficult to predict, may Turkey and Istanbul continue to be a bridge to connect parts of the Western and Eastern world.
