Hey Jason. Loved the videos👍👍. I spent two weeks on the Asian side & two weeks on the European side just getting my head together after Volunteering for three months with the Red Cross/Red Crescent on the Türkiye/Syrian border. I have Always wanted to visit this Beautiful country & now Türkiye & it's Lovely people will Always have a Special place in my heart. Safe & Happy travels Jason.☘✌
Thanks Jason, love the way you present the cities and always give some background/history, which makes watching your videos both enjoyable and educational!
Very recently after my Turkish gf and I had started communicating online, a kahve fali fortune reader had come to her Istanbul house, reading the coffee grounds and telling her she would meet a blond-ish man, move across the ocean and live in a seven-bedroom house full of antiques. Her family didn't believe it, but the man in that reading was me and our online relationship (along with the occasional vacation rendezvous) has been going on for around ten years. I've assisted in her learning English and we'll soon be married.
This guy is one of the best out there with Gabriel traveler. His vlogs are very informative. Hes already convinced me to go to Jordan in the past and im planning a trip to Japan after seeing his videos. This Turkish trip looks interesting as well.😊
Thank you Jason for showing us Turkiye through your eyes. It's unique experience though watched beautiful Turkiye many times. ♥️ from Bangladesh.Btw loved faiser... Pardon me if i misspelled. ♥️
Feel very fortunate to have such good presentations for Istanbul & Coastal Türkiye cities with good transportation, walking and lodging opportunities. Hope to enjoy a visit someday. Thanks for sharing, everyone. gracias
Great video. I live in the US, California. I was there last year, loved it so much that I am going to Turkey in one week again. This time we’ll explore İstanbul a bit more, Çeşme, budrom and cappadokia. The history, culture, people, food, music and variety of sight seeing will have me go back again and again…….i am saddened how their currency has lost value and the economic pressures that locals are experiencing. I hope their leaders will address and remedy it soon. Hopefully I can check out some of the places you recommend.
I did the crossing back in February this year and have made up my mind to never lodge anywhere in Istanbul but the Asian side. Peaceful, relaxed, original and less touristy. Enjoy
I am also recently back home - Sarıyer/Istanbul. Totally different experience of Istanbul. Highly recommended to visit! No bias 😋 let me know if you need any help
Turkiye especially Istanbul is a city that was so amazing,Sometimes I got bored,I search on a TH-cam like city in Turkiye such as Istanbul,Cappadocia,Ankara,that was so peaceful city and relieve stress city😂
Did you travel the prince islands? you can go there from Beşiktaş İskele, and also you should try the chicken meal called "tantuni" it is very tasty :))
Heres something you may find interesting. :) The name of my country has nothing to do with the interesting and delicious bird 'turkey'...... .....but the name of the bird does have a connection with the name of my country, let me explain. :) In the past 40 years 37 countries have changed their name, partially or fully. Obviously one can not change the name of an apple or an orange etc in other languages, but country names are like peoples' individual names, so if you're named John we don't call you Karen. :) Name of my country has always been Türkiye, it's been known as such since around the 1200's. The name it self has a suffix, '-iye', that is Turk-iye, where the -iye suffix means 'land of/belonging to', just like the Latin suffix of '-ia', which exists in such country names like Austr-ia, Austral-ia, Indones-ia etc. Basically, the use of '-iye/-ia' is the same as the the use of '-land' suffix in country names like Ire(Eire)-land, Po(le)-land, Eng(Anglo)-land and so on and so on. Many would remember the country Czechoslovak-ia which changed it's name to Czech Republic and a few years ago changed that to Czechia (that is Czech-ia). The Latin suffix -ia probably originates from Turkish -iye as Turkish been over 10,000 years is much older than Latin which is around 1300 years old. Spelled in different languages in different ways to phonetically resemble (to sound like) 'Türkiye' we got various spellings like; Turq-uía (in Spanish), Turch-ia (in Italian), Turq-uie (in French) Turk-ei (in German) Turk-ey (in English) Mind you this was way before the animal we currently know as turkey was found by the europeans when they explored the north americas. The bird was first sent to europe from north americas in the year 1519, so up until that point there was no bird named turkey.... ...they came across the bird and thought it was a specie of the fowl/chicken they had been buying from the country of Turkiye at the time, so they named the bird 'Turkey Fowl' to define 'Turkish Chicken'... ....just like how a dog breed is known as German Shepherd (because it's from Germany), American Bulldog, British Terrier, Greek Harehound etc etc. In time you don't get to call the harehound simply as Greek or you don't call the terrier Britirsh, or shepherd as simply German, but in time the Turkish Fowl started to be called just 'Turkey' and later 'turkey', and this went on for hundreds of years. Now in modern times, this caused confusion, especially when we have people across the world unable to point to their own country on an atlas. Basically we didn't change the name of our country, we changed the mistake made in the English language. : ) So, there's some tid bit information for you to have a great day, if you read upto this point you have a great night too, ohh just have a wonderfull life. : ) Best wishes. ;)
Kenan that was an educated and thorough explanation. There are many ignorant people who haven’t travelled or didn’t pay attention in geography class, that tend to make funny jokes about turkey the bird and the country. I welcome the change to proper name Turkiye. Greetings!
@@alienanobis Well, there is a prevalent narcissism in the 'western socieites'. I may sound 'anti western' infact not, there's a lot of benefitial traits of western culture, but the narcissistic outlook towards others in the western culture is prevailant and this lead to the slavery of other people, to the colonisation and funnelling of the riches of many non western geographies into the west, while forcing those regions into been ''third world', meddling in with their social and political healt, ruining their economy while funneling their riches in an attempt to create and keep present a rift between their countries and the 'east'. So such people, out of their mental conditions and add to that their ultranationalistic distortions have, do and will make such attempt to ridicule others whom they deem inferior to them. It's a psychological trait. And I have to cut it short because I'm eating, otherwise I can further talk about this illness for days. : )
Would be a great explanation if not so many, even quite gross inconsistencies. First of all, the etymology of turkey as a bird, which you described, is just one of at least two main theories. "Name of my country has always been Türkiye, it's been known as such since around the 1200's." Not at all. There were many different names used over centuries, but the first official use of "Türkiye" appeared much much later - exactly in 1920 in the Treaty of Alexandropol. And it's just a Turkified variation of a Medieval Latin word "Turquia". Which brings us to the third, very gross misstatement: "The Latin suffix -ia probably originates from Turkish -iye as Turkish been over 10,000 years is much older than Latin which is around 1300 years old." This is completely wrong and so untrue. It's the other way around. Latin definitely isn't 1300 years old. It's rather closer to 3000 years. Whereas the current Turkish language is quite young, being a result of language reform in 1930s it became quite distant even from Ottoman Turkish used before. But even stretching its etymology to old and proto-Turkic languages, the oldest known inscriptions in Old Turkic language are from 8th century and the most optimistic estimates place Turkic language family origins as far as 2500 years ago. Which is nowhere close to your figure and even younger than origins of Latin. I admire how much you love your country and your nation. But you should stick to facts if you guys want to be treated seriously.
@@kamaelwu9247 You have made many wrong assumtions and statements: - The gepographu of Anatolia is labelled as Turkiye/Turkia by various mappers from europe since the 1171, because it means ''land of the Turks'', the ''Republic of Turkiye'' comes from that, not the other way around. - The archaic Latin dates back to 2700 years, however the Latin we know is merely about 1300 years old, the two, although similar is not completely the same language. -Turk language is not a result of ''Turk language reform in the 1930's''. :) The Turk langauge in different dialects is spoken from mid europe eurasia all the way to siberia and does in fact date back more than 10,000 years infact upto 40,000 years. In fact there are over 5000 stone inscriptions found all across europe which can only be deciphered by ancient Turk alphabet. The origins of the Futhark and Runic alphabets is the ancient Turk alphabet etc etc. By you would not know any of this due to cultural bias in various circles. And some further info that you probably did not know: The -ia/iye suffix entered Latin thru Turk language, but into the Turk language it may have entered via Arabic or vice versa. Another suffix -istan that we so commonly see in many country names like Pak-istan, Afghan-istan, Turkmen-istan etc etc also has the same meaning as the -iye/ia suffix, with the -istan suffix been of Persian origin. Finally, thank you for your suggestion, however you need to realize it is the limited knowledge that you have that may be a cause of you not taking us serious, there may be psychological reasons to your condition, been ignorant of a certain people and looking down upon them may be the reason why you have such a hard time taking us serious. Get that fixed. If you can. Take care.

Will definitely cross over by ferry but coming from Asia on only a 3 day visit, I may want to explore more of the European side, but if the Asian side is more Turkish, will spend more time here
Recently went to Istanbul for the first time ever and I took the ferry attempting to go to Fatih however I ended up in Üsküdar let’s just say it was a happy accident 😎
Actually, a ferry is not the only way to get to the Asia side of the city. There is a convenient high-speed commuter rail link that connects both halves of Istanbul. So, let's be clear about that.
I know you from my city Chittagong, Bangladesh vlog. I try to learn Turkish language as i wanted to go there. Hope the price there would be affordable for me.
I visited Kadikoy and (unpopular opinion) I didnt liked. It seems like its a party area full of clubs and bars. Very loud. Actually Uskudar is much more classy, calm and quiet. An underrated part of Asian side is Kuzcuncuk. Its beatiful over there (and quit, not overcrowded).
fal is prohibited in Islam. We Turks do not forget our shaman traditions. The sharp feature that distinguishes Turks from Arabs. Shamanism is in our genes.
Hey buddy, thank you for detailed explanations of everything, I plan to visit Istanbul soon, and I want to know how you obtain Istanbul transit card, last time I was there I was only getting single ride cards.
Omigosh, ha, I told my friends after my first in that area it reminded me of SoHo when I lived in NYC 😂. Can’t remember if London SoHo reminded me of NYC SoHo. Haha
Has Uskudar changed or is it just me? I missed Turkey and my friends in Turkey very much. I will be in Turkey again in two and a half months. I like this country.
No, the same. Üsküdar is a municipality. He is in Kuzguncuk, which is part of Üsküdar municipality. Probably, you have been in Central Üsküdar - Üsküdar Üsküdar 😊
Please end your partnership with airbnb if you can. It causes locals to be pushed out from their own neighbourhoods in Istanbul, and also they have listings for places on illegal Israeli settlements. Travel should be ethical
What! Pushing the locals out. Do you think Istanbul only yours! Tell me where do you or your family come from? " Israelis blah blah. If you suspect there is a danger to the country, go to a police station or contact to the government. It sounds more like you want to make the money instead of this particular BNB. And if you don't like it, move to another suburb.
@@travia6688 Ayrıca nereden göçtüysen Istanbul'a, ingilizceyi'de öğrenmişsin, İstanbul'da. Geldiğin yerdekiler, artık Diyarbakırmı, Konyamı, senin kadar Ingilizce bilmiyor, AI kullanıyorsa sen Ingilizce biliyorsun diye havalarda uçman senin acizliğini, kendinle olan kavganı ortaya çıkartıyor.
I’m not really understanding this whole saying of Asian side of Turkey. Looking at the map it’s not Asian side, it’s the Middle East side, which has nothing to do with the “Asian”
Syria,Iraq,İran,İsrael they are middle eastern.You cannot equate Turkey with these countries. They are Middle Eastern countries, Asia is not only China and South Asia...

Heres something you may find interesting. :)
The name of my country has nothing to do with the interesting and delicious bird 'turkey'......
.....but the name of the bird does have a connection with the name of my country, let me explain. :)
In the past 40 years 37 countries have changed their name, partially or fully.

but country names are like peoples' individual names, so if you're named John we don't call you Karen. :)
Name of my country has always been Türkiye, it's been known as such since around the 1200's.

Ire(Eire)-land, Po(le)-land, Eng(Anglo)-land and so on and so on.
Many would remember the country Czechoslovak-ia which changed it's name to Czech Republic and a few years ago changed that to Czechia (that is Czech-ia).
The Latin suffix -ia probably originates from Turkish -iye as Turkish been over 10,000 years is much older than Latin which is around 1300 years old.
Spelled in different languages in different ways to phonetically resemble (to sound like) 'Türkiye'
we got various spellings like;
Turq-uía (in Spanish),
Turch-ia (in Italian),
Turq-uie (in French)
Turk-ei (in German)
Turk-ey (in English)
Mind you this was way before the animal we currently know as turkey was found by the europeans when they explored the north americas. The bird was first sent to europe from north americas in the year 1519, so up until that point there was no bird named turkey....
...they came across the bird and thought it was a specie of the fowl/chicken they had been buying from the country of Turkiye at the time, so they named the bird 'Turkey Fowl' to define 'Turkish Chicken'...
....just like how a dog breed is known as German Shepherd (because it's from Germany), American Bulldog, British Terrier, Greek Harehound etc etc.
In time you don't get to call the harehound simply as Greek or you don't call the terrier Britirsh, or shepherd as simply German,
but in time the Turkish Fowl started to be called just 'Turkey' and later 'turkey', and this went on for hundreds of years.
Now in modern times, this caused confusion, especially when we have people across the world unable to point to their own country on an atlas.
Basically we didn't change the name of our country, we changed the mistake made in the English language. : )
So, there's some tid bit information for you to have a great day, if you read upto this point you have a great night too, ohh just have a wonderfull life. : )

Love this series on Istanbul. Seriously though, 2mins 34secs, tell me that is not Barry Chuckle heading across on the ferry.
How accurate do you think her Future Reading is going to be? I’m not sure I’ve got the balls to look into my future!
Only time will tell!
How did you find a guide? And how much do you have to pay for one?
Love the video
Amazing views... your style of filming is great, what camera setup did you use?
This was just filmed on a GoPro.
@@JasonBillamTravel Amazing result, what GoPro was it and eat it on a gimbal or something?
how much guide cost for few hours
Will definitely cross over by ferry but coming from Asia on only a 3 day visit, I may want to explore more of the European side, but if the Asian side is more Turkish, will spend more time here
Go to Sultanbeyli. It's the best place to visit in Istanbul :)
😂 Although Sultanbeyli is a district of Istanbul, it is not Istanbul.

Is it possible to visit both places in 1 day?

Can you connect me with her? I’m tracking to Istanbul next week?
Recently went to Istanbul for the first time ever and I took the ferry attempting to go to Fatih however I ended up in Üsküdar let’s just say it was a happy accident 😎
You ended up in the wrong continent, perhaps Asia was calling you.
Asian side is always known more Turkish. Moreover especially Kuzguncuk is green and authentic. To me peaceful. Sum up you did a great choice:)
I have eaten pastry’s at that bakery shop in kadikoy and it was the most delicious and very cheap compared to the European side
Actually, a ferry is not the only way to get to the Asia side of the city. There is a convenient high-speed commuter rail link that connects both halves of Istanbul. So, let's be clear about that.
How would I hire your tour guide?
Can I take my folding bike on the ferry?
excellent

Why mentioned Arabs when no is talking about them
Good informative and interesting as always from Jason but the coffee reading was boring and took up too much time!
Great video, thanks. Come to Tajikistan (Central Asia).
Would love to at some point!
Are you sharing an ayran???? WOW...
Hey buddy, thank you for detailed explanations of everything, I plan to visit Istanbul soon, and I want to know how you obtain Istanbul transit card, last time I was there I was only getting single ride cards.
Omigosh, ha, I told my friends after my first in that area it reminded me of SoHo when I lived in NYC 😂. Can’t remember if London SoHo reminded me of NYC SoHo. Haha
Great minds think alike!
City of just 16 million 😊
Yeah! Some countries in Europe are only a quarter of Istanbul.
Nice, do you plan to visit Alanya too?
Türkiye yabancının CENNETİ türkün CEHENNEMİ maalesef 😭🗣️
She's telling him marry me lol 😂
Has Uskudar changed or is it just me? I missed Turkey and my friends in Turkey very much. I will be in Turkey again in two and a half months. I like this country.
No, the same. Üsküdar is a municipality. He is in Kuzguncuk, which is part of Üsküdar municipality. Probably, you have been in Central Üsküdar - Üsküdar Üsküdar 😊
OMG your girlfriend and I have the same name🎉🎉🎉 how cool is that. ❤
welcome back to my country handsome ☺️😉
Hello jason love from india 🎉
the coffee cup reading kinda silly , sorry!
Üsküdar with its new mayor looks more European
That means you don't know anything about Istanbul , didn't spend much time or never been to, and have a low self-esteem issues.

travel guide brother
Turkey used to be the Ottoman Empire.
I would rather drink the coffee than get the lousy fortune
Please end your partnership with airbnb if you can. It causes locals to be pushed out from their own neighbourhoods in Istanbul, and also they have listings for places on illegal Israeli settlements. Travel should be ethical
What! Pushing the locals out. Do you think Istanbul only yours! Tell me where do you or your family come from? " Israelis blah blah. If you suspect there is a danger to the country, go to a police station or contact to the government. It sounds more like you want to make the money instead of this particular BNB. And if you don't like it, move to another suburb.

I’m not really understanding this whole saying of Asian side of Turkey. Looking at the map it’s not Asian side, it’s the Middle East side, which has nothing to do with the “Asian”
It’s still continental Asia
I’m from Korea and we don’t consider this Asian side. It’s more like the Middle East side
You need to study continents.
@@liamlee8422 do you have any idea about asia or middle east?
Syria,Iraq,İran,İsrael they are middle eastern.You cannot equate Turkey with these countries. They are Middle Eastern countries, Asia is not only China and South Asia...

Nice you got an all American girl to show you around. Its the city of fleas not cats.
Hater Carlos
As someone living in Istanbul, I have never seen fleas. I guess there are many where you live.
@aslikirhalli The street cats have fleas......fool
@ As long as you don't sleep with them, no one gets fleas, and the eau de cologne (contains ethanol) that we commonly use in Turkey is also effective against fleas... ignorant
Türkiye’yi ziyaret ediyorsunuz ama çeviride Türkçe yok. Türkler sizi izlesin istemiyor musunuz?
West side best side!
Jason! But you didn't tell the part, she was still beaten by the snake hidden in the basket of fruit that was brought to her. 😊
And agree with Borsa Lahmacun: the best lahmacun and cheapest, as well as one of best service, nice , kind people.
