Thanks for all your comments, I have some more which I,ll try to get on. Rimms it was quite busy I think we were just lucky when the photo,s were taken. we were there on the 1st October for 4 days. We stayed just off Istikal St, which is the Taksim area. I have never seen so many people in my life as there are walking up and down Isitikal St, day and night.

Keep meaning to detour via Istanbul on the way out some time - and those pics only make that look like an even better idea.

Thanks for posting them.

Thank you! fabulous photos of a wonderful place. Yes, it's amazing how much busier it can be. I have never been to such a buzzy place, especially at night, simply breathtaking. I love these photos, makes me want to go back soon!
