Istanbul (Turkey): City of Everyday MAGIC

- Finding everyday beauty in Istanbul, Turkey - Turkish food, cafe culture, call to prayer, & more.
Istanbul is a city of incredibly rich history. It's been home to many civilizations over the centuries - all of which have left a lasting mark. And its sights continue to attract visitors from all over the world. Yet, Istanbul’s everyday moments are what truly mesmerize. The ferries carrying millions each day from continent to continent. Long conversations over a slow, indulgent meal. A cat joining you for a cup of tea or coffee. These are the things that stay with you long after you leave.
Here's a list of what we did and where we visited in this video:
• The Velvet Cafe in Balat for Turkish breakfast
• Taking the ferry from Europe to Asia
• Petting the cats of Istanbul in Cihangir
• Taksim Square and the backstreets of Taksim
• Blue Mosque
• Mundo Novo Cafe in Cihangir
• Demeti Meyhanesi for meze and raki

@@paulweber1570 Only in your dreams and in your dirty pants !
I have traveled to more than 50 countries in the world. But Turkey fascinated me. We decided to live here with my family. I have been living in Turkey for 4 years. Turkish people are very polite and hospitable.
nice! welcome to our homeland. where do you come from?
Haklısınız. Dünyanın en güzel ülkesidir. Her yönden... Hoşgeldiniz. ❤❤

Atma sarı kafa.😀
@@kuheylanbeygiroglu127 amacın ne?? Sen o insanın içinde misin? Neden yalan yazsın, ne mecburiyeti var??
This is the best vlog I have ever seen.
I want to appreciate the cameraman and the editor. I love Turkey 🇹🇷 From Ethiopia 🇪🇹
Ethopia failed state
I had prolonged stay in Turkey that was originally a lay over. I have to say it’s been my favorite place in the world. It was the most magical surprise that filled up my souls with colors and so much goodness!! 🎉
Didn't you fear being targeted by rebels? Or the scams? What happens if there are any legal entanglements? As a Foreigner, you have no rights. I don't want to end up in prison. I think I'll pass.
@@jamesnash6101 feel free to never go?
Turkey is a beautiful country, I saw 0 issues. Scams? You know it’s like that anywhere you go right? I was recently in Cabo and I was approached in broad daylight (like 10 times) by people selling drugs, that never happened while I was in Turkey. I felt safe the entire week, I am so glad I went. People were the sweetest I’ve ever met and the food was great. I can’t wait to go back!
@@labitcoineragt3596Thank you so much bro.
@@jamesnash6101u should stop commenting while u are tipsy! 😐
💯 on point! Türkiye 🇹🇷 is just awesome, rich in history and fantastic destination for me too
Spent a week there in March, magic place both sides must be explored
Agreed!
I have never been to Turkey but for the past one year or so, I have been obsessed with the country, particularly Istanbul, thanks to TH-cam and TH-camrs like you. I hope I can visit some day. I know I definitely will.

İstanbul'un mistik bir havası var. Beğeneceğinizi umuyorum.🙏🇹🇷
@@serdargungor4731 I don't doubt that one bit 😌
@@ankitagrawal7556 If you decide to come, be very careful.
Because many foreigners came to Turkey from abroad.
It is no longer a safe place as it used to be. Even we are afraid now.
@@serdargungor4731 In what way is it not safe anymore ? Are you referring to the street scams ?
As a Turk who has been living in Istanbul for 23 years, Istanbul is an indispensable city. Even though earthquake, expensiveness and crowd problems are at the highest level right now, the magic of Istanbul does not allow us to leave.
Couldn't agree more :)
I was there last year, people was asking me how is it? It was so magical i couldn't explain it , Now i told them to watch your video,! ❤ beautiful woman in most beautiful city in the world!
Istanbul has been my home for 20 years, and I am incredibly grateful to have been born and raised in this captivating city!
Politically
Went there with friends last May, indeed an unforgettable city. Will surely visit again!
Istanbul is my sister’s favorite city, other than Chicago where we both live. Great video! I just subscribed 😁
Thank you for watching!
I Need her ig for marrying +visa
Tell your sister our regards :)
May God bless Turkey and their people abondantly in this hard time, and of course a lot of thanks for their kind reception of more than 4 millions refugees. wishing them the best in the futur.... cheers
In fact, they did not accept it kindly. They entered the country by force and the crime rate rose dramatically
Mültecileri biz kabul etmedik. Hükümet onları kabul etti.
Kind reception ?! Refugees who are loud abusive rude stinks ?!?
@@volkandogan7449 and there are 15 million refugees/fugitives in total. ''only 4 millions'' is the government's lie.
13 million refugees in turkey
Canım güzel ülkem
i am in love with turkey since i was 14 years old now i am 21 i wish i could go turkey one day but i couldnot efford right now but inshALLAH I WILL GO THERE IN MY LIFE ONCE , i only watched turkish dramas and turkish cluture turkish music touches my soul everytime
İnşallah birgün sizde ziyaret edersiniz Türkiye den selam 🤗
@@husamettinozdag9984 whatever u wrote i didnot understand 😭
greeting from Türkiye🥰
@@malaikaazam2327 I hope you visit Turkey one day. Greetings from Turkey.
@@malaikaazam2327 Malaika, can you tell me the name of the country you live in?
As a Turk, I did not understand the song playing in the intro of the video because the song sung is not Turkish. My beautiful country turned into a refugee camp
bastaki arap sevici sagolsun turk disinda her telden insan var
Kürt şarkıcılar galiba. Arap olsa ne olur? Başka ülkelerde de farklı kültürden insanlar şarkı söylüyorlar...
@@ferdotan5923 80'li yıllarda İsveç'e pek çok kürt iltica etmiş ve bir süre mülteci olarak yaşamışlardı. Ama İsveç halkı sizin gibi davranmadılar. Kültürleri arasında büyük fark olduğu halde...Bu ülke, savaştan kaçıp gelen her Ukraynalı ve Rus olan insana da kapısını açtı.Hatırlatırım... 90'lı yıllarda Halepçe katliamından kaçan kürt'lere de kapısını açmıştı. Ve çok sayıda kürt iltica etmişti. Fakat o zaman kimse Turgut Özal'ı eleşirmemişti böyle!
Kardeşim 20 milyon mülteci var bizde. bütün isvec nufusu 10-11 milyon sen neyden bahsediyorsun.@@user65351
Kürtler ne zamandan beri mülteci oldu ?
Istanbul is so beautiful
With love from Istanbul, where I was born and where I still live.. 🙋♂️
Brava , I am istanbul citizen more than 50 years and you made a beautiful explanation of istanbul life without any prejudice
im heading to Turkey in 3 weeks and this video has really got me me excited about the trip. Your style is great and you showed me several things i hadnt seen in others videos. Good stuff and well done. Thank you!
Have you been to Istanbul? Did it live up to your expectations?
@@regliyimziya8676 Yes i did! What an amazing and beautiful country. I was 5 days in Istanbul, 5 days in Goreme and 5 days in Antalya. All 3 were completely different, but equally wonderful. Istanbul got me hooked quickly with its endless history, chaos of 18 million people, the cat culture and the delicious food!!! The pre-sunrise views of Asia over the Bosphorus and then turning to watch Sultanahmet slowly brighten from the long waterfront walkway in Galataport became my morning ritual. Oh i miss that. Pure magic!
Exactly, i call Istanbul organised chaos as well LoL @@photoholic11
❤ Istanbul
Turkey is the last frontier for the modern muslim population in middle east. Loved the vlog.
Türkiye is always a magical country with an irresistible charm🐈0🍝🍛🥗☕🧿🇹🇷♥️🎉😎
It really is!
Is occupied Greece or better byzantine empire
@@southface6684 we Turks are the fathers of the Greeks. We ruled Greece for 600 years with a governor and planted our culture and seeds. This is proof that you are our bastards.. You are now our Turkish son...🤘🇹🇷

@@southface6684 Istanbul has never been a Greek city and never will be.
Another great video. I love Istanbul.
Great architecture and nice people! Beautiful mosques and awesome call for prayer 🤲 ❤
Oh sure it's beautiful. Bur if there are any legal entanglements. A Foreigner has no rights, plus I don't want to be a target. To much to risk, I think I'll pass.
@@jamesnash6101 I see, nevertheless awesome video and magical Türkiye 🇹🇷❤️
@@jamesnash6101Just take your pill. Lots of negative comments about Istanbul under every positive. Some very big issues.
@@jamesnash6101 olumsuz yorum yapman, gerçekleri değiştirmez. Anlayabildin mi??
Cùng bạn trải nghiệm thật thú vị, thành phố rất đẹp và người đi lại rất đông vui. Chúc bạn nhiều sức khỏe.
I'm currently in Istanbul and I'm loving it. I leave in 2 days and sad about leaving already. Such a magical city. I would love to return one day.
Number 1 on my bucket list.
How beautiful you are, the city of my dreams ❤❤❤❤
I lived in Istanbul for six years with my wife, and your video really brought back strong nostalgia for me. Your video feels so authentic.
You drank Turkish tea, went to the mosque, got on the ferry and went from the Anatolian side to the west side. You went to the entertainment venues of Istanbul and took beautiful shots. Speaking of which, you are a lot of fun too.
My suggestion is that you go to other beautiful cities of Turkey and shoot vlogs there. Cities I recommend you to visit: Izmir (Dikili and Ephesus), Denizli (Pamukkale Travertines), Kuşadası, Antalya (Aspendos and Patara Beach and Santa Claus Church), Mersin (Heaven and Hell Caves), Elazığ (Harput)
We are waiting for you again Türkiye.
We just come from Istanbul love loved.
令人神往的城市
You have captured the soul and rhythm of Istanbul.
What a lovely video ! It brought tears to my eyes as a native of Istanbul who lived most of his life abroad. Thank you. ❤
Istanbul couldn't be explained and exposed better. Living here since I was born (1968) and love my city. Thank you for this awesome video. It made me fall in love with Istanbul again. THANK YOU. :)
Worlds best city!!!
This might be the most unbiased take on my city that i've seen in years! Thank you for enjoying our culture, the right way
Love your video. Accurate and the best representation of Istanbul
Great video & city of İSTANBUL 🌙🌙🌙
Wow. I’ve seen many İstanbul vlog but this is the best representation of the İstanbul vibe I have ever seen. Huge props 🎉
Istanbul is Amazing city ❤
Your video deserves way more views. Beautifully shot, edited and presented.
Great Vlog Beautiful Cat's Amazing,😺😘♥️👍
WOW! I was there in the 80's had no idea the size! 20 million
What a fascinating place, this would be heaven to me. Especially the beginning Breakfast my gosh... lol
That’s one of the best videos I have ever seen on the city. You hit the bulls eye with the vibe you presented in the video. Istanbul is not only about the historical places, there is much more to enjoy.
I wish the economy was not misarable for us locals so we could experience this beauty as we wish.
Pandeminin üzerine bir de, yüzlerce yıl görülmeyen bir deprem yaşadık. Bunların etkisi var ekonomide. Fakat sabretmeliyiz ve öncelikle depremzede kardeşlerimizin yaralarını sarmalıyız, öyle değil mi kardeşim??
@@user65351ekonomi pandemiden önce bka sarmaya başlamıştı.
@@kuheylanbeygiroglu127 öyle mi? Erdoğan iktidara gelmeden önce 1 dolar=1,5 milyon lira. Yanlış yazmadım. 1,5 MİLYON Lira idi. YANİ: günümüzde 1,5 milyon lira verince lüks bir otomobil alınabiliyor. Fakat 21 sene önce 1,5 milyon lira verince sadece 1 dolar alınabiliyordu. Bak ne kadar açık yazdım (O zaman Erdoğan değil, Ecevit hükumeti vardı)... PEKİ Erdoğan'dan önceki bu ekonomi neye sarmış oluyor ACABA???... Bir şey örnek daha; 21 sene önce öğretmenlerin çoğunun arabası yoktu, 20 yılda çoğunun arabası var...Bu da pandemiden önceki 17 yılı açıklar... Bir de; 31 sene önce yollar berbattı, çoğu tek şerit idi, kazaların, ölümlerin haddi yoktu.Savunma sanayii diye bir şey yoktu; tüfeğimizi bile dışarıdan alıyorduk. Şimdi ise tank, helikopter, füze, muharip uçak vs. ve yerli otomobil yapacak duruma geldik. Bunları da düşünmek gerekir, adil kıyaslama olması için... Son olarak kardeşim; iki senelik pandemi etkisi sürerken 11 şehirde birden kıyamet gibi depremi de unutmayalım. Çoğu insan unuttu da...
bro i live in germany, which is very beutiful country too,,,and believe me because of the economy i cant do how i want,,,, this is not a issue for türkiye only
@@asker9172 well, I studied in one of the top universities, had shit ton of experience before graduation and now I’m employed as a full-time engineer. I can hardly afford rent + food in the shittiest place in Istanbul.
No prospect of buying a house or a car or any investment.
Living in germany also has some negatives but don’t ever think about comparing the quality of life between Türkiye and Germany.
Great video!!! I miss Istanbul so much, I lived there for 2 years. I went for a short visit and fell in love with the city, food, and people. When life allowed it, I moved there until the money ran out :) If I could, I'd have stayed there. Perfect alt place for this New Yorker.
I think you made the best video for İstanbul life. This video might be the best one I've watched so far. Beautiful clips with beautiful locations and of course with your beautiful explanation. You really showed the actual attractive side of İstanbul in the best way possible.
Wow, thank you! We love the city and are so glad you enjoyed our video!
It was the best Istanbul video i have watched so far
beautiful video, thank you
Perfect video showing all aspects of İstanbul with beatiful photos.
I love your videos, I am very happy to see , I hope you have a lot of success, that you continue to grow in everything you propose ❤
Beautiful video. I'll go there for everything but mostly because of the cats! 😀
You should check out our Istanbul cat video ;)
Great travel vlog
As i turkish i must say great video, lots of love from Istanbul ❤😊

Istanbul looks amazing. Would love to go one day. Appreciated the relaxed manner you present the places. I travelled to San Francisco twice & loved it, so watched those 2 travel pieces before this one. Really well done. Video angles & filming perspectives & techniques create a perfect intimate feeling, like I was there too & compliment your manner of presentation very well. Same was true for your Bay to Breakers one, but with some zaniness. Haven't commented on the other 4 of your travel-logs. All were fun to watch. Thanks. Great job.
your look and presentation are so beautiful
Very beautiful,thank you very much for this video,l am proud of my country,Welcome all : ) hugs from China.
I miss Istanbul so much ❤️🧿
I can say that it is the best video about Istanbul. As someone living in Istanbul, I thank you. I hope you visit again. Love from Istanbul ❤️
Best vlog ❤
This video made me miss my hometown Istanbul 😍
This is the very first time that I have viewed one of your video presentations. I must say it is one of the most fascinating, yet educational travel videos I’ve ever seen when it came to this wonderful city of Istanbul. I think that your perspective on the city is fresh and very unique. I had to watch the video at least three times because I was so fascinated. My daughter who is a cat lover truly enjoyed your discussion of cat culture there. I cannot wait to see your other video PresentationS. Please keep up your fantastic work and by the way, your musical selections are absolutely wonderful😊
Wow, this is such a nice comment. Thank you so much for watching and we're so glad you enjoyed it 🙏
güzel ülkemın büyülü şehri İstanbul senı seviyorum 🫶🏻🇹🇷
I’m coming to visit Istanbul soon
But I enjoyed watch your video. You’re stunning!
it's a good documentary. 👍👍👍
This is beautiful, I like it ❤
I loved it very much❤
How affordable is Istanbul? Great video, beautiful host...
How affordable it is depends! Coming from the US it is not bad.
exchange rate one dollar 28 tl you think.
if you coming from US or EU, extremely affordable even with our special tourist rip off prices.
thank you!
Wonderful Video ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Stupendous video. Subbed.
Hi Istanbul ❤️

What does Istanbul have to do with the music you used in the beginning?
Beautiful ❤❤

Lots of live from india ..i love this city really want visit 😇😇😇
I want to go to there
Cats in your nightlife? Fantastic!
Nice video
You made my day! Thank you! Cats as i see it makes more sense than most people i know so Turkey next! (And the people there)!
very nice!!! 🤩
nice vid
You should checkout Kuzguncuk/Uskudar area just like in balat they have colorful wood house and nice cafes too. We stay one of those house loved it.
What if you are falsely accused of a crime? Does a Foreigner have any legal recourse? Since I don't want to just stay in my hotel room. I'll pass.
@@jamesnash6101 Whoever you are and whatever scumbag your name is? No matter what you do, you won't be able to reverse the positive thoughts about Turkey and Turkish people, you goddamn scumbag.

@@jamesnash6101are you thinking midnight express is Real 😂😂😂😂😂 ahahhahaha
@phonaccnt9730 I just want to warn all visitors about that man eating beast. That live in Emirgan Parki. I heard that it is ten foot tall with bulging green eyes that do not blink.
It's teeth are laid in multiple rows. It is a ravenous horrifying humanoid monster that roams the countryside waiting to feed on human flesh. And it is constantly being overheated and sweating, with a body odor so rancid that he could be smelled from twenty feet away.
The reason that there are no cats. Well.... it swallows cats whole - yes that beastly stomach is never satisfied.
What is the ONLY way to kill this brutal beast is
A wooden stake of any kind and type is harmful and also fatal to it. From wooden pencils to tree branches, a wooden stake through the heart will permanently kill it.
Go to anadoluhisari one of the oldest arda of İstanbul...everyone shows taksim,grand bazaar etc.. go and find places noone shows...anadoluhisari, kanlıca, beykoz ,Üsküdar ,beylerbeyi,cengelkoy etc.... Good luck 🇹🇷❤️
tyty nice to watch
Good job
greetings from Istanbul...
very good shooting, editing and script. one of the best travel vlog i've ever seen
I'm visiting in 3 months 😊
You made perfect video about istanbul well done as a Turk
