The hottest placeon Earth! Even though there's a lot of poverty (especially child-poverty) and homeless people, it's a place that means the world to people, who have lived there. Honestly, it's a place that' ll touch you, if you visit it one day. There's a great atmosphere and it's probably the only city on Earth, where old asian culture and modern western culture has a nice balance. A lot of great mosques and historical places to visit.
Oh, and by the way: IT*S ISTANBUL! NOT CONSTANTINOPEL!! OK?! SHOUT IT: ISTANBUL!!!!
A: Istanbul use to be the capital city of Turkey, but now it's another city called Ankara.

B: In Istanbul there's a place called The Grand Bazaar, where you can buy nice fake watches for dirt cheap prizes.
