"Driving in Istanbul"


Istanbul. Istanbul is faßzinierend. Istanbul is impressive. But Istanbul is also great, huge. And to get from one place to another, the "common" Turk served course of his car. And cars are

there many of the same. Old, new, big, small, beautiful and less beautiful, expensive and rather cheaper. But, and usually is the case, they are all at the same time on the road to Istanbul's streets, then there is a traffic chaos, a special kind.

dual carriageway, be used at least six lanes. The horn is the most important and widely used standard.

Although the Turk is always peaceful and always kind to his fellow man, the one in the two-minute revolving cursing and abusing the other road users, but at least as to the "basic equipment" by, of fighting through Istanbul driver.

Red lights seem to always be green, turn signals are used only in exceptional cases and pedestrians should either venture only in armor on the streets or stay at the top right at home, whether the appreciation and consideration that give them the drivers receive. Paris came in one comparison, like an oasis in front of most peaceful bliss.

The traffic chaos in Istanbul, is a major reason for Istanbul to either hate or love. I chose to love. As you know, in the truest sense of the word :-))

Even if I would ever live in Istanbul, I would never own the idea to want to own a car. Too large, the benefits of using one, every two seconds on a passing taxis. Yellow in color, but some adventurous whether their condition.

The taxi driver knows most of the way, a belabbert the whole journey, even if one of Turkey's powerful is passed a like a wet towel in hot summer days and a cigarette on cold winter days (you will find yourself at this point rightly ask, what does cause a cigarette on cold days, but I felt like, sounded kind of good) -:) ).

Especially the taxi but a decisive advantage: It has never been the difficulty and the difficulty of description is an understatement at this point more than one-Parplatz found. to locate the same applies to your own car in Istanbul, is almost analogous to the probability of crossing to put the right six numbers in the lottery.

Add to this that taxis in Istanbul are more than reasonable, even a trip through the complete City usually costs no more than 10-15 €.

me personally, it also brings an additional comfort. Relaxed and completely stress-free I can enjoy the ride, observe that around me-playing and turning my head 360 degrees, absorb right and left, front and rear, top and bottom of the charms of this city are wrong.

So I'll come mostly relaxed, with my business and am prepared to schedule the things that may come as well.

with congestion-free greetings
