Its imposing dome and stunning mosaics make it a must-see.
#### Topkapi Palace - UNESCO World Heritage Site
Topkapi Palace, the centuries-old center of the Ottoman Empire, offers a fascinating glimpse into history. Built in 1459 by order of Sultan Mehmet II, the palace sits atop the ancient acropolis of Byzantion. Visitors can wander through its four courtyards, each housing unique treasures such as the imperial gates, the harem, and the magnificent gardens.
#### Sultan Ahmet Mosque (Blue Mosque)
The Blue Mosque, constructed between 1609 and 1616, is an architectural gem. Designed by Sedefkar Mehmet Ağa, the mosque is renowned for its six minarets and beautiful dome structure.

#### Basilica Cistern (Yerebatan Cistern) - UNESCO World Heritage Site
The Basilica Cistern, built by Emperor Justinian, is a mysterious underground water reservoir. With 336 columns and a capacity of 80,000 cubic meters of water, this cistern offers a unique experience. The pedestals featuring Medusa heads are a fascinating highlight.
#### The Grand Bazaar and the Spice Bazaar
The Grand Bazaar, one of the largest covered markets in the world, is a shopping paradise with over 1,200 shops. The nearby Spice Bazaar, also known as the Egyptian Bazaar, is famous for its exotic spices, herbs, and local products.
#### Dolmabahçe Palace
Dolmabahçe Palace, on the European shore of the Bosphorus, is a magnificent piece from the Ottoman period. Built in 1856, this luxuriously decorated palace offers a glimpse into the opulent lifestyle of the Ottoman sultans.
#### Süleymaniye Mosque

Built by order of Sultan Suleiman I between 1550 and 1557, the mosque combines elegant architecture with a beautiful interior, including stunning stained-glass windows and an impressive chandelier.
#### Whirling Dervish Ceremony
Experience the spiritual and cultural richness of the Whirling Dervish ceremony, a fascinating Sufi tradition of spinning meditation. During this ceremony, the dervishes seek a deeper connection with Allah through music and dance.
#### Bosphorus Cruise
A cruise along the Bosphorus offers spectacular views of both the European and Asian sides of Istanbul. This strait, which connects the Sea of Marmara with the Black Sea, is a significant waterway with a rich history and breathtaking landscapes.

Hello Peter from Phoenix Arizona. Just a thought on filling your Jerry Cans What if you filled them in a confined state before capping them. A simple wood frame would do the trick.

Hello Peter and Good Afternoon from Florida. I want to express my sincere thanks for sharing this video. I am in love with 'Tall Ships'. Having learned a little about sailing a friends 32' Sloop on Lake Erie on over night excursions I can only imagine fulfilling the unrequited dream of crewing a tall ship on a voyage. Ah. That would be a dream come true for this aging man. I am particularly fond of the lines of a Schooner but also like square riggers as well. Especially the beautiful Tea Clippers of the 19th century. Cutty Sark and Flying Cloud being two that leap to mind. Thank you again Peter for sharing this as I vicariously live out the dream whilst viewing this. All the best to you with a wish for 'fair winds and trailing seas'.
Thank you for the nice commentary on my film. Let's hope the world will be travelable again soon
The music sounds like Enya……if it is nice pick I love it
thanks for the comment
Your film fulfilled a life long dream of mine, albeit in "virtual reality"; it was how you told the story with your editing. I actually prefer this longer version. I was particularly thrilled with the Journey; I have a fondness for Tromso and enthralled with Lofoten. Thanks for sharing,
Thanks for the comment.
all white...
Thanks for your comment
Just like with modern science
great attention to detail and rigging and manning this vessel. one criticism, like many of these cases there are so few images showing whats she fully looks like on the water.. oh, well. something maybe...
Thanks for your comment
Show the beauty of a magnificent vessel from another one.
Thanks for your comment
Glad to see the safety harnesses on the sailors in the rigging!
