كيف تقضي يوم كامل في الطرف الآسيوي من إسطنبول بدون ما تفوّت أي مكان مهم؟ 🌇🚶‍♂️ خليني أخدك بجولة تبدأ بفطور خرافي على البوسفور في مطعم البلدية، أحلى مكان تبدأ فيه يومك مع فطور تركي أصيل أو كاسة شاي وإطلالة ساحرة. بعدها، روح على Kaftan Sokak، الدرج الملون اللي صار من أشهر زوايا التصوير في أسكودار. من هناك، كمل على حي كوزغونجوك، الحي العثماني القديم ببيوته الخشبية الملونة وأجوائه اللي تاخدك لزمن تاني. بعد جولة في الحي، لازم تزور قصر بيلرباي، واحد من أفخم القصور العثمانية المطلة على البوسفور، وبعده مباشرة روح على حديقة Nakkaştepe، المكان اللي بيعطيك إطلالة بانورامية خرافية على جسر البوسفور. بعد كل هالمشي، صار وقت الأكل، وأفضل مكان هو مطعم Nev Mekan، واحد من أجمل مطاعم البلدية في إسطنبول، لكن لازم تعمل حسابك إنه ممكن يكون فيه طابور انتظار. وأخيرًا، لازم تختم يومك في ساحل أسكودار مباشرة مقابل برج الفتاة، وتستمتع بأحلى غروب ممكن تشوفه في إسطنبول! 🌅✨ 📍إذا حابب تعرف كيف تزور كل هالأماكن وأي مواصلات تستخدم، شوف الفيديو الكامل على يوتيوب! لا تنسى تحفظ البوست وتتابع الحساب للمزيد 🔥 #إسطنبول #تركيا #السياحة_في_تركيا #السياحة_في_إسطنبول #السفر #أماكن_سياحية #اكتشف_إسطنبول #الطرف_الآسيوي #أسكودار #تركيا🇹🇷اسطنبول #viral #fyp
