Istanbul 3

Our third day in Istanbul was fun!  We visited the Suleyman Mosque Complex built in 1557 by an important sultan, Suleyman, who reigned the longest - 46 years!  We visited the Grand Bazaar, enjoyed lunch at a coffee shop, and walked through Taksim Square with decorative flags to the famous Galata Tower.  This is a historic watchtower and symbol of the city.  We ended the day with a dinner cruise on the Bosphorus with a show!
