1093 That's wonderful

readx;

It's almost all free, and the rental guides are available in various languages, even Japanese, but there is no Chinese, don't they know how much Chinese the audience is? The worldview is so narrow......

Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo were amazed by these precious collections and exquisite buildings along the way, but they could only rely on superficial English to recognize the introductions on the side of the exhibits, and finally knew some of their origins.

The Topkapi Fortress (PKAP) in Istanbul, Turkey, is located on the promontory of a peninsula full of historical sites in Istanbul, overlooking the Sea of Marmara and the Bosphorus. The walls surrounding the entire palace, the gates near the land side, and some of the first buildings are from 1451 to 1481.

Mehmed II (built during the reign of the conqueror. In addition to some of the above buildings, the current overall layout of the palace includes a number of new complexes that were added in later centuries.

Topkapi Palace (Pkap) has been the residence and office of successive Ottoman sultans from the time of Mehmed II (the Conqueror) to 1856. In addition, its Enderun part became a school and still has an important place.

The gate of the palace is painted with Arabic, and the Arabic is written interlocking, like a drawing, not only has connotation, but also has a decorative effect.

The ticket to the Old Palace looks familiar, similar to the design of the Hagia Sophia ticket. It's still a key to an ancient civilization.

The porch of the palace is piled up with the remains of many ruins, and from these exquisite carvings, you can still feel their former glory, the powerful Turkish Empire. How unstoppable.

The dome of the Sultan's chamber and the council chamber have delicate gold-filled patterns and frescoes, very Islamic style, and there is an incense burner-like pendant in the middle, which is extremely exquisite, and it is clearly forbidden to take pictures in many rooms of the palace, but outside the treasure room, Yunluo can't help but take a lot of photos, and always wants to leave these beautiful things in the camera to bring back.

The rise of the Ottoman Turkish Empire led directly to the decline of the Silk Road. But the fusion of Eastern and Western cultures never stopped, in this royal palace built for the powerful sultan of the time. Different architectural styles abound, and perhaps the ambition of the rulers has encompassed the whole of Europe and Asia, combining the best of the East and the West, in Istanbul. There is always a delusion of confusion.

The warm autumn sun shone on Nalan Shiqi and the clouds set, and spent a leisurely afternoon with tourists from far and wide strolling around the Old Palace.

It's more like a big school, attracting students from all over the world with its precious treasures and ancient civilizations. It's a pity that I didn't do my homework before, and I couldn't learn a lot of knowledge on the spot, so I could only take more photos and keep them for later reference.

Leave Topkapi Palace and enter the last major itinerary to visit and shop at Istanbul's Grand Market. The Great Market of Istanbul originated as a market in the Byzantine era and has been repeatedly remodeled and expanded. It now covers an area of more than 20 hectares and has more than 4,000 shops of various kinds.

The centerpiece of the Grand Market of Istanbul is a mall built in the second half of the 15th century with two domes on the roofs of the displays, and since then. Gradually, the two malls were connected by vaulted streets and gradually formed a network that developed into the size of today's large market. Although the Great Market of Istanbul is spread out in a flat layout.

The morphology of the various parts is repeated many times, but thanks to the clear division of the area, the internal pattern is orderly. This feature is also reflected in the structure of the building: the vaults on the upper part of the road are framed on the vaults of the shops on either side to allow for light by high side windows; The vault of the shop is of uniform height, perpendicular to the barrel arch above the road.

It's like a shopping spot though. After all, it's a market, but when you arrive, you realize that it's also a wonderful attraction. Everywhere is meticulously carved, whether it is a commodity or a building, all of them are unique and colorful, and the paintings hanging on the dome seem to be an exhibition, all of which are extremely rich in color.

The dazzling array of goods attracts everyone's attention, with national characteristics of handicrafts and unique way of placement, it is easy to have the urge to take them home, all the way down, although try to restrain themselves, but still bring back a lot of exquisite gadgets.

Turkish carpets should be a well-known specialty, the vendors in the big market are particularly enthusiastic, will use a variety of Eastern and Western languages to promote their goods, this brother is also very enthusiastic to let Yunluo help him and his small shop to take a photo, like this kind of room is full of carpet feeling, can be used, can be decorated, full of the mysterious style of the Western Regions.

I like this uncle so much. Smiling all the time. You won't feel strange here, everything is so familiar and friendly, because of the hospitality of the locals. For religious reasons, most of the girls here stay at home, and the boys come out to work.

Entering the big market, surrounded by handsome guys greeting you, that feeling is absolutely fascinating, unforgettable, handsome guys in Turkey, left a very deep impression on Yunluo......

As the sun sets, Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo prepare to bid farewell to the crowded Istanbul and embark on the way home, as if they are already familiar with the Marmara Sea and various ancient buildings around them, as well as the enthusiastic locals who will greet Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo through the car window, everything is so reluctant, like a dream.

Istanbul is a magical place with a rich history and rich culture, as well as beautiful and unique landscapes and a very welcoming people.

Turkey is not outstanding in the outbound travel routes, but it is definitely a very special route, unlike the famous Europe, where there are very few Orientals, and the eyes are full of Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo's impression of the "foreigner", which is quite exotic. At the airport Yunluo heard other groups of tourists praising their trip to Turkey, albeit unpopular.

But you will never regret it. I look forward to the opportunity to visit Turkey again in the future, visit the best corners of the country, and feel their different enthusiasm again.

The Pyramid of Khufu, how spectacular is it? In Yunluo's view, only by touching and admiring it in person can one feel the shock that the miracle that stood here thousands of years ago brought to Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo. It was the world's tallest building for thousands of years and is still in awe today.

Standing at the foot of the pyramid, Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo saw that the spire was not so sharp, but in fact, the Pyramid of Khufu was the magnificent structure it has today after the failure to build a steeper pyramid.

Climbing the pyramid is very difficult and dangerous. The hawkers around the pyramids are also very difficult and shameless. These vendors will often use various excuses to talk to you and then ask you for money in broken English with the word "money". The best thing to do is to ignore them and not touch them. Better yet, never speak a word of English in front of them.

The pyramid of Hylaf, it is said that the spire part of the tower was once inlaid with gold, of course, now it is only a legend, what kind of grand occasion it was back then, Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo really do not know. There are significantly fewer vendors in the area, but they still flock to sell their orders when they see tourists.

Further afield, the Giza Pyramids can be seen from afar, including 3 large pyramids and 3 smaller pyramids. From this point of view, it is mistaken to think that the pyramid of Helav is higher, but in fact, it is just that the pyramid of Khufu is relatively low. Egypt, the sky is clear, and the white clouds like cotton float are refreshing. Of course, if there is no sun exposure, it will be more pleasant.

After visiting the pyramids, Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo drove back to the Sphinx. The building, which was once rumored to have Napoleon's nose removed, is still stunning today. Yunluo tried to pose for an optical illusion picture of hitting its nose, but unfortunately Nalan Shiqi didn't understand Yunluo's intentions and kept letting Yunluo's fist aim at its mouth. Alas, so be it...... In addition, many people take optical illusion photos with the Sphinx, and Yunluo thinks that the best place to shoot is a high platform, but for people like Yunluo who are afraid of heights...... Forget it! There are still many vendors in the Sphinx who are "white wolves with empty gloves", which is to teach you how to pose, and then ask you for a tip. In the face of such a non-technical job, Yunluo even saw a Japanese girl give 2 dollars directly, which is really rich!

Lunch was eaten at a Chinese restaurant in Cairo, the restaurant is called "Wang Fu Hotel", which sounds very domineering, and it feels like a very ordinary small restaurant when you go in. The meal can only be said to be well cooked, but everyone has eaten it all! Because I'm so hungry!

In Egypt, there is breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Afternoon meals live up to their name, as they usually eat at 8-9 a.m., 1-2 p.m., and 8-9 p.m. Their civil servants work six hours a day from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. That's why traffic jams start after 2 p.m. in Cairo every day...... What enviable working hours.

The Egyptian Museum is very impressive, and it is really not clear how many artifacts there are. Unfortunately, you are not allowed to take photos inside the museum, so you can only take pictures of the exterior. The reliefs on the exterior wall are Egyptian gods, but they are dressed in the costumes of the ancient Greeks.

Only one artifact in the Egyptian Museum is a fake, and the others, including the stone carvings in the garden outside the museum, are all genuine. In the ancient Egyptian mythology of chasing rebirth, resurrection is an eternal theme, and it is constantly mentioned by the guide during the tour of the museum.

Tutankhamun, whose history has been obscure, has left all his treasures intact, and his treasures, especially his mask, are breathtaking. (To be continued)
