ʻO Istanbul i ka Mele Kalikimaka: nā kukui kilokilo a me ka piko o ka consulate
E noʻonoʻo i ka hele wāwae ʻana ma nā alanui nui o Istanbul, i hoʻopuni ʻia e kahi lewa Kalikimaka kūikawā. Ma kēia kūlanakauhale kupua, i kaulana no kona hoʻolālā nani a me ka mōʻaukala waiwai, e ʻike ʻoe i kahi lewa Kalikimaka e like me ke kaona ponoʻī. ʻike ʻia ma nā wahi a pau.

ʻO kahi ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo maoli no ka poʻe e ʻimi nei i kahi ʻāpana Kalikimaka kuʻuna ʻo ia ka mākeke Kalikimaka ma ka German Consulate General. Ma ʻaneʻi hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike i ka lewa Kelemania i kahi lewa nostalgic - me nā mea āpau e hele pū me ia: mulled waina, gingerbread a me kahi lewa ʻoluʻolu e hoʻomanaʻo iki iā ʻoe i ka home.

ʻOiai ʻaʻole ʻo Kalikimaka kahi lā hoʻomaha ma ka hapa nui o Muslim Turkey, nui nā mea e hana ai ma Istanbul e hoʻokomo iā ʻoe i ka ʻuhane hauʻoli. E hele kāua!
kūʻai a hele wāwae
Hoʻololi ka moku ʻo Nişantaşı ma Istanbul i paradaiso kūʻai maoli i ka wā Kalikimaka, kūpono no ka poʻe e ʻimi nei i kahi mea kūikawā. Kaulana kēia ʻāpana nani no kāna mau hale kūʻai kūʻokoʻa a me nā hale kūʻai kiʻekiʻe. Inā ʻoe e ʻimi nei i nā makana kūʻokoʻa a me nā kiʻi mai nā mea hoʻolālā kiʻekiʻe, ua hele mai ʻoe i kahi kūpono. Hoʻokumu nā mea hoʻonani Kalikimaka nani ma nā alanui i kahi lewa kupua e poina ʻole ai kāu ʻike kūʻai.
ʻAʻole wale ʻo Nişantaşı, akā ʻo nā hale kūʻai nui o Istanbul e like me Cevahir, Zorlu Center a me Istinye Park e hāʻawi i nā mea hoʻonani Kalikimaka nani. ʻO kēia mau kikowaena kahi puʻu no ka kūʻai Kalikimaka, e hāʻawi ana i nā hale kūʻai like ʻole mai nā hōʻailona honua a hiki i nā mea kūikawā kūloko. Ma ʻaneʻi ʻoe e ʻike ai i nā mea a pau a kou puʻuwai e makemake ai - mai ke ʻano a me nā mea nani i nā mea uila a me nā mea pāʻani.
Hiki iā ʻoe ke hele maʻalahi iā Nişantaşı a me nā hale kūʻai ma nā kaʻa lehulehu. Nui nā kaʻa kaʻa a me ka metro i kēia mau wahi kūʻai kaulana. No kahi huakaʻi hoʻomaha, manaʻo mākou e hoʻohana i ka Istanbulkart, kahi tiketi kaʻa kaʻa lehulehu.
No laila, e hoʻopaʻa i kāu mau ʻeke kūʻai a hoʻomākaukau no kahi kūʻai Kalikimaka kupanaha ma Istanbul! Me nā kukui ʻālohilohi, nā mea hoʻonani ʻoliʻoli a me kahi koho pau ʻole o nā hale kūʻai, ʻo kāu kūʻai Kalikimaka ma Istanbul he mea hiki ʻole ke hoʻopoina.
ʻO nā mea leʻaleʻa kuʻina
ʻO kahi huakaʻi meaʻai o ka ʻike ma Istanbul i ka wā Kalikimaka he mea pono loa ia no nā gourmets a me nā connoisseurs. ʻO ke kūlanakauhale he ipu hoʻoheheʻe o nā mea ʻono, a he nui nā mea ʻono kahiko e ʻike ai, ʻoi aku hoʻi i ka hoʻoilo. E hoʻomaka i kou lā me kahi simit i kālua hou ʻia, kahi berena sesame ʻano apo ʻāʻī e hele maikaʻi me kahi kī Turkish wela. Hiki iā ʻoe ke loaʻa iā Simit ma kahi kokoke i nā kihi alanui āpau, ʻoi aku hoʻi ma nā wahi paʻahana e like me Eminönü a i ʻole Taksim.
ʻO kekahi mea koʻikoʻi o ka hoʻoilo ʻo salep, kahi inu hoʻomehana i hana ʻia mai nā ʻōpala orchid lepo i hāʻawi ʻia ma nā hale ʻaina a me nā hale kūʻai alanui. ʻAʻole ʻono wale kēia inu Turkish maʻamau, akā kūpono hoʻi no ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻana ma hope o ka hele ʻana i nā alanui ʻoluʻolu o Istanbul.
No ka ʻaina awakea, pono ʻoe e kipa i kekahi o nā hale ʻaina he nui e hāʻawi ana i nā menus Kalikimaka kūikawā. Hoʻohui pinepine kēia i nā meaʻai Turkish kuʻuna a me nā hopena o ka honua. Ma nā moku e like me Beyoğlu, Kadıköy a i ʻole Sultanahmet e ʻike ʻoe i kahi ākea o nā hale ʻaina e kūpono i kēlā me kēia ʻono.
ʻAʻole e poina ka nui o nā hale kūʻai momona kahi e ʻike ai ʻoe i nā mea ʻono Turkish e like me baklava, Turkish chocolate a me marzipan. He mau makana maikaʻi kēia no kāu poʻe aloha a i ʻole kahi hoʻomanaʻo maikaʻi o kāu huakaʻi Istanbul.
ʻO ke ala maikaʻi loa e kiʻi ai i nā wahi hotspots culinary o Istanbul ma ka metro a i ʻole kaʻa. E hoʻohana i ka Istanbulkart e hele me ka ʻoluʻolu a me ke kumukūʻai. ʻO ia ke ʻano hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike i ka leʻaleʻa culinary o Istanbul ma kahi ʻano hoʻomaha a hauʻoli i ka lewa hauʻoli o ke kūlanakauhale a piha. ʻO kāu hoʻomaha Kalikimaka ma Istanbul ʻaʻole ia he ʻahaʻaina no nā maka, akā he ʻahaʻaina hoʻi no nā mea ʻono!
Nā hale pule a me nā hana hoʻomana
ʻO Istanbul, kahi kūlanakauhale waiwai i ka mōʻaukala a me ka moʻomeheu, hāʻawi pū kekahi i kahi ʻike ʻuhane kūʻokoʻa i ka wā Kalikimaka. No ka poʻe i makemake i ka manawa noʻonoʻo, ʻo nā hale pule mōʻaukala o Istanbul he mau pōhaku maoli. ʻO St. Antoine Church, nani loa ma ke ala kaulana ʻo Istiklal Avenue, ʻo ia kekahi o nā hale pule Katolika Roma nui loa ma Istanbul. Ua ʻike ʻia ʻo ia no kāna hoʻolālā nani a me nā lawelawe Kalikimaka noʻonoʻo, e hana ana i kahi lewa maluhia i waena o ka hustle a me ka haʻalulu o ke kūlanakauhale.

E hoʻokaʻawale iā ʻoe iho i ka ʻaoʻao ʻuhane o Istanbul a e ʻoluʻolu iā ʻoe iho e ka lewa leʻaleʻa a me ka mōʻaukala o kēia kūlanakauhale kūʻokoʻa.
ʻO Bosphorus Cruise
Hāʻawi kahi moku Bosphorus ma Istanbul i kahi ʻike like ʻole i ka wā Kalikimaka. E noʻonoʻo ʻoe i ka holo ʻana i nā wai ʻālohilohi o ka Bosphorus, i hoʻopuni ʻia e ka lani nani o Istanbul e alohilohi ana me nā kukui ʻoliʻoli. Hāʻawi kēia mau huakaʻi i kahi hiʻohiʻona kūʻokoʻa i ke kūlanakauhale e hoʻopili ana i ʻelua mau ʻāina a he mea koʻikoʻi loa ia no kēlā me kēia malihini i Istanbul.
Ma luna o ka moku hiki iā ʻoe ke leʻaleʻa i nā hiʻohiʻona nani o nā hiʻohiʻona mōʻaukala e like me Topkapi Palace, Hagia Sophia a me ka Blue Mosque, kahi mea kupanaha i ka mālamalama o ka pō. Nui nā moku holo moana e hāʻawi i nā meaʻai a me nā mea inu Turkish maikaʻi, no laila hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike i ka leʻaleʻa culinary o Istanbul ma ka wai.
Haʻalele maʻamau nā moku holo moku Bosphorus mai Eminönü a i ʻole Kabataş, ʻelua mau wahi maʻalahi ma ka ʻāpana ʻEulopa o Istanbul.

ʻAʻole hiki i ka moku holo moku Bosphorus ke mahalo i ka nani kūʻokoʻa o Istanbul, akā he manawa hoʻi e hauʻoli ai i nā manawa hoʻomaha mai ka hustle a me ka puʻupuʻu o ke kūlanakauhale. ʻO ka lā a i ʻole ka pō, ʻo ia huakaʻi e hana i kou noho ʻana ma Istanbul i ka wā Kalikimaka i poina ʻole. No laila, mai poina i ka manawa e ʻike ai iā Istanbul mai ka wai a hauʻoli i ka lewa kupua ma ka Bosphorus.
Nā hana noʻeau a me ka moʻomeheu
ʻO Istanbul, kaulana no kāna ʻano hana kiʻi nani a me ka moʻomeheu, ua lilo ia i paradaiso maoli no nā mea aloha i ka wā Kalikimaka. Hāʻawi ke kūlanakauhale i ka waiwai o nā hale hōʻikeʻike e hāʻawi ana i nā hōʻikeʻike kūikawā a me nā hanana. ʻO ka Hale Hōʻikeʻike Sakıp Sabancı kahi mea e pono ai no kēlā me kēia malihini, aia ma kahi hale nani ma ka Bosphorus. Hōʻike kēia hale hōʻikeʻike i kahi hōʻiliʻili hoihoi o nā hana noʻeau mai ka Ottoman calligraphy a hiki i ka hana hou. I ka wā Kalikimaka, ua hoʻonani pinepine ʻia ka hale hōʻikeʻike me nā mea hoʻonaninani ʻoliʻoli, e hoʻonui ai i ka lewa.
ʻO kekahi mea koʻikoʻi ʻo ka Istanbul Modern, i hoʻolaʻa ʻia i nā kiʻi o kēia wā. Aia ia ma ka moku ʻo Karaköy kaulana a ʻike ʻia no kāna mau hōʻikeʻike hou. Ma ʻaneʻi hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike i nā hana hou loa a nā mea hana kiʻi Turkish a me nā honua a loaʻa i nā ʻike e pili ana i ke ʻano kiʻi ʻoniʻoni o Istanbul.
Maʻalahi nā hale hōʻikeʻike ʻelua e nā kaʻa lehulehu. Hiki ke kiʻi ʻia ka Hale Hōʻikeʻike Sakıp Sabancı e nā kaʻa kaʻa e holo ana ma ka Bosphorus, ʻoiai ʻo Istanbul Modern kahi huakaʻi pōkole wale nō mai ke kahua tram Tophane. Mai poina e hoʻohana i kāu Istanbulkart e hoʻokele maʻalahi i ke kūlanakauhale.
Ma waho aʻe o kēia mau hale hōʻikeʻike, he nui nā hale kiʻi a me nā kikowaena moʻomeheu e hāʻawi ana i nā hanana kūikawā a me nā hōʻikeʻike i ka wā Kalikimaka. Mai ka hana kuʻuna Turkish a hiki i nā hoʻonohonoho hou, aia kahi mea hou a hoihoi e ʻike ma Istanbul. No laila, e hoʻohana i ka manawa kūpono e makaʻala i ke ʻano kiʻi nani a me ka moʻomeheu ʻo Istanbul i kāu kipa Kalikimaka.
Nā papa hana Kalikimaka
ʻAʻole hāʻawi wale ka Kalikimaka ma Istanbul i ka lewa hauʻoli a me nā hiʻohiʻona hoihoi, akā ʻo ka manawa hoʻi e aʻo ai i nā mākau kūʻokoʻa i nā papa hana hana. Nui nā hale ʻaina a me nā kikowaena moʻomeheu i ke kūlanakauhale e hoʻonohonoho i nā papa hana Kalikimaka kahi e hiki ai iā ʻoe ke aʻo i nā hana kuʻuna Turkish e like me Ebru (Turkish marble technique), calligraphy a i ʻole ka hana keramika. ʻO kēia mau haʻawina he manawa maikaʻi loa ia e ʻimi hohonu ai i ka moʻomeheu waiwai o Istanbul i ka wā e hana ana i kahi mālama kūʻokoʻa.
ʻO kekahi o nā wahi kaulana loa no ia mau papa hana ʻo Istanbul Design Center a me nā hale liʻiliʻi liʻiliʻi ma nā moku mōʻaukala e like me Sultanahmet a me Galata. Hāʻawi kēia i kahi lewa ʻoluʻolu a hoʻoulu, kūpono no ka hoʻomohala ʻana i kāu mau akamai kiʻi.
Hiki iā ʻoe ke hele maʻalahi i kēia mau papa hana me ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka halihali lehulehu. Loaʻa iā Istanbul kahi pūnaewele nui o nā kaʻa kaʻa, metro a me nā laina tram e hōʻoluʻolu iā ʻoe i kāu huakaʻi hale hana. Me ka Istanbulkart, hiki iā ʻoe ke kūʻai aku ma nā wahi kūʻai aku ma ke kūlanakauhale, ʻaʻole e maʻalahi kāu lawe ʻana akā ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi.
E komo i loko o kekahi o kēia mau haʻawina Kalikimaka a ʻike i ka waiwai a me ka leʻaleʻa o ke aʻo ʻana i nā hana kuʻuna Turkish. He ala maikaʻi loa ia e hoʻonui ai i kou noho ʻana ma Istanbul i ka wā Kalikimaka me ka lawe ʻana i kahi souvenir hana lima.

I ka wā Kalikimaka, lilo ʻo Istanbul i kikowaena o nā hanana moʻomeheu a me nā ʻahamele. Hāʻawi ke kūlanakauhale i kahi ākea o nā mea koʻikoʻi moʻomeheu, mai nā mele kahiko a hiki i nā hana kiʻi hou a me nā hana kuʻuna Turkish. ʻO kahi ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo kūikawā no ka poʻe aloha mele ʻo Cemal Reşit Rey Konser Salonu, kekahi o nā keʻena ʻaha mele nui o ke kūlanakauhale, i ʻike ʻia no kāna mau leo mele maikaʻi a me nā hana kiʻekiʻe. Ma ʻaneʻi hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike i ke ʻano o ke ola ʻana o ke mele kahiko i loko o kahi lewa.
ʻO kekahi wahi wela no ka poʻe hoihoi moʻomeheu ʻo Atatürk Cultural Center, kahi wahi nui no nā hana keaka, nā hōʻikeʻike a me nā hanana moʻomeheu. Aia i loko o ka puʻuwai o Taksim, he wahi hālāwai nui ia no ka hana a me ka moʻomeheu ma Istanbul.
No ka hiki ʻana i kēia mau ʻoihana moʻomeheu, paipai mākou e hoʻohana i nā kaʻa lehulehu kūloko. ʻO ke kahua kaʻaahi Taksim a me nā laina kaʻa like ʻole e alakaʻi pololei ana i ka Atatürk Cultural Center, aʻo ka Cemal Reşit Rey Konser Salonu e maʻalahi i ka metro mai ke kahua ʻo Osmanbey.

ʻO ke kipa ʻana iā Moda i ka wā Kalikimaka he manawa maikaʻi loa ia e ʻike ai i ka ʻaoʻao mālie a ʻoi aku hoʻi o Istanbul. E ʻoluʻolu ʻoe iā ʻoe iho i ka lewa ʻoluʻolu a me ka noʻonoʻo o kēia moku nani a hauʻoli i kahi ʻike Kalikimaka kū hoʻokahi ma kekahi o nā kihi nani loa o Istanbul.

ʻO Kadıköy, kahi kaiāulu ola ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻAsia o Istanbul, ua ʻike ʻia no kāna hui ʻana o ka nani kahiko a me ka nani o kēia wā, ʻoi aku hoʻi i ka wā Kalikimaka. I kēia manawa o ka makahiki, hele mai ʻo Kadıköy i ke ola me ka plethora o nā hanana moʻomeheu, nā mākeke a me kahi ola pō. Ua hoʻonani ʻia nā alanui a hāʻawi i kahi leʻaleʻa nani no ke kūʻai ʻana a me ka mākaʻikaʻi Kalikimaka.
ʻO ke alanui ʻo Bahariye, ʻo ka puʻuwai o Kadıköy, kaulana no kāna mau koho kūʻai like ʻole, mai nā hale kūʻai kūloko a i nā boutiques hou. Nui nō hoʻi nā kīʻaha, nā kaola a me nā hale ʻaina e hāʻawi ana i kahi koho maikaʻi loa o nā meaʻai meaʻai a e hōʻike ana i ka lewa ola o ka moku.
Hiki ke maʻalahi iā Kadıköy e ka ferry mai ka ʻaoʻao ʻEulopa o Istanbul, kahi ʻike ponoʻī iā ia iho. Hāʻawi ke ala i nā hiʻohiʻona nani o ka Bosphorus a me ka lani o ke kūlanakauhale. Ma hope o ka hōʻea ʻana i Kadıköy, hiki ke mākaʻikaʻi ʻia ka moku ma ka wāwae a i ʻole ma nā kaʻa lehulehu. Me ka Istanbulkart, ka mea kūpono ma nā kaʻa, nā kaʻaahi a me nā ferries, lilo ka ʻimi ʻana i mea maʻalahi a maikaʻi hoʻi.
ʻO ke kipa ʻana iā Kadıköy i ka wā Kalikimaka he ala maikaʻi loa ia e ʻike ai i ka moʻomeheu ikaika a me ke ola pō kū hoʻokahi ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻAsia o Istanbul. Hoʻokaʻawale iā ʻoe iho i loko o ka hustle a me ka haʻalulu, e hauʻoli i ka lewa hauʻoli a ʻike i nā ʻano he nui o kēia ʻāpana hoihoi.
Apana ʻo Beyoğlu
ʻO ka moku kaulana ʻo Beyoğlu ma Istanbul, ʻo ia hoʻi ka wahi a puni ke alanui ʻo Galata, he mea pono e ʻike ai no nā moʻomeheu a me nā mea aloha a pau, ʻoi aku hoʻi i ka wā Kalikimaka. Kaulana ʻia kēia ʻāpana no kāna kiʻi ʻoniʻoni ʻoniʻoni, me nā hale kiʻi a me nā hale kūʻai e hōʻike ana i kahi ākea o nā hana hoʻomohala mai nā mea pena a me nā mea hana lima. I ka manawa Kalikimaka, hoʻokipa pinepine ʻo Beyoğlu i nā hōʻikeʻike kūikawā a me nā hanana e hōʻike ana i ka moʻomeheu kūloko a me nā hana hana a hana i kahi lewa kū hoʻokahi.
Ma waho aʻe o nā hiʻohiʻona kiʻi, hāʻawi ʻo Beyoğlu i kahi waiwai o nā hiʻohiʻona mōʻaukala, nā hale ʻaina nani a me nā hale ʻaina maikaʻi loa e hoʻomau. Ua ʻike ʻia ka wahi no kāna hoʻolālā nani, mai Ottoman a hiki i kēia manawa.
Hiki ke maʻalahi ka moku ʻo Beyoğlu e nā kaʻa lehulehu. ʻO Istiklal Avenue, kekahi o nā alanui nui ma Beyoğlu, aia ma kahi mamao mai Taksim Square. ʻO ka tram mōʻaukala e holo ana ma ke alanui ʻo İstiklal he ala maikaʻi nō hoʻi e makaʻala i ka moku. No kahi huakaʻi ʻoluʻolu, hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻohana i ka metro, nā kaʻa a i ʻole ka funicular, a me ka Istanbulkart ʻaʻole maʻalahi ka huakaʻi akā maʻalahi hoʻi.
ʻO ke kipa ʻana iā Beyoğlu i ka wā Kalikimaka e hāʻawi i ka manawa kūpono e ʻike ai i ka puʻuwai hana o Istanbul i ka wā e hoʻolulu ana iā ʻoe iho i ka ʻuhane hauʻoli. Eʻoliʻoli i nā hōʻikeʻike kiʻi, e ʻike i nā mea hoʻomanaʻo kūʻokoʻa a ʻike i ka moʻomeheu ola o kekahi o nā kaiāulu hoihoi loa o Istanbul.
bebe
ʻO ka ʻāpana nani ʻo Bebek o Istanbul, kahi kiʻi nani ma ke kapa o ka Bosphorus, he wahi idyllic no ka hoʻomaha hoʻomaha i ka wā Kalikimaka. ʻIke ʻia no kāna mau hale kūʻai nani, nā kīʻaha nani a me nā hale ʻaina papa honua, ʻo Bebek kahi wahi kūpono e hoʻoulu ai i ka ʻuhane hauʻoli ma kekahi o nā wahi nani loa o Istanbul. I ka wā Kalikimaka, ua hoʻonani nani ʻia nā alanui o Bebek, e hāʻawi ana i ke kaiāulu i kahi lewa a me ka leʻaleʻa.
ʻO kahi mea koʻikoʻi ma Bebek ka nui o nā kīʻaha a me nā hale ʻaina ma ka Bosphorus, ʻaʻole ia e hāʻawi wale i nā meaʻai a me nā mea inu ʻono, akā hāʻawi pū kekahi i nā hiʻohiʻona nani o ka wai a me nā moku e hele ana. ʻO kēia mau hale hoʻokumu kahi kūpono e hoʻomaha ai a hauʻoli i ka lewa hoʻomaha a nani o ka wahi.
He maʻalahi ka hele ʻana o Bebek ma ke kaʻa a kaʻa paha. Aia nā lawelawe kaʻa maʻamau mai nā ʻāpana like ʻole o Istanbul e hele pololei ma Bebek. No ka poʻe e hōʻea ana ma ke kaʻa, aia kahi kaʻa ma kahi kokoke, ʻoiai hiki ke kaupalena ʻia i ka wā Kalikimaka. ʻO kahi kaʻa kaʻa i Bebek kahi koho kūpono.
ʻO ka kipa ʻana iā Bebek i ka wā Kalikimaka he manawa maikaʻi loa ia e ʻike ai i ka ʻaoʻao mālie, akā ola ʻo Istanbul. E hele wāwae ma kahakai, e leʻaleʻa i nā mea hoʻonani ʻoliʻoli a e hoʻohiwahiwa ʻia e nā makana culinary a me nā hiʻohiʻona nani o ka Bosphorus.
Istiklal Caddesi
ʻO ke alanui ʻo Istiklal ma Istanbul, kekahi o nā alanui kūʻai kaulana a olaola o ke kūlanakauhale, e hoʻololi i kahi kilokilo hoʻomaha maoli i ka manawa Kalikimaka. ʻO ke alanui, e holo ana mai Taksim Square a hiki i Galata Tower, ua hoʻonani ʻia me nā puka makani hale kūʻai i hoʻonani ʻia a me nā kukui uila e hana ana i kahi lewa kilokilo. Hāʻawi ka poʻe mele alanui a me nā mea pena kiʻi i ka lewa hauʻoli a hauʻoli me kā lākou mele a me kā lākou hana.
Ma kahi o ka ʻike kūʻai, hāʻawi pū ʻo Istiklal Caddesi i nā ʻano kīʻaha like ʻole, nā hale ʻaina a me nā moʻolelo mōʻaukala kahi e hiki ai iā ʻoe ke hauʻoli i ka moʻomeheu kūloko a me ka meaʻai. He wahi kūpono ia e ʻike ai i ka ikaika a me ka nani o Istanbul.
ʻO ke alanui ʻo Istiklal kahi hele maʻalahi mai Taksim Square, kekahi o nā wahi kaʻa nui o Istanbul. Hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻohana i ka tram nostalgic e holo ana i ka lōʻihi holoʻokoʻa o Istiklal Caddesi, kahi ala ʻoluʻolu a ʻoluʻolu e makaʻala i ke alanui. Maʻalahi a maʻalahi ka hele ʻana i laila me ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā kaʻa lehulehu e like me ka metro, kaʻa a me ka leʻaleʻa, hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia me Istanbulkart.
ʻO ka hele wāwae ʻana ma ke alanui ʻo Istiklal i ka wā Kalikimaka he mea poina ʻole. E hauʻoli i ka lewa ʻoliʻoli, nā makana moʻomeheu like ʻole a me ka ikehu kūʻokoʻa i hāʻawi ʻia e kēia alanui kaulana.
Sultanahmet Square
ʻO Sultanahmet Square ma Istanbul he wahi kupanaha, ʻoi loa i ka wā Kalikimaka. Hoʻopuni ʻia e kekahi o nā wahi mōʻaukala kaulana loa o ke kūlanakauhale, e like me Hagia Sophia a me ka Blue Mosque, hāʻawi ka square i kahi ʻike immersive a me ka lewa. I ka wā Kalikimaka, ua hoʻonani ʻia kēia wahi me nā kukui ʻoliʻoli a me nā mea hoʻonaninani, e hāʻawi ana i ka square i kahi manaʻo hauʻoli.
ʻO ka hele ʻana ma ke kahua ʻo Sultanahmet e like me kahi huakaʻi i ka mōʻaukala waiwai o Istanbul. Ma waho aʻe o nā hiʻohiʻona hiʻohiʻona e like me Hagia Sophia a me ka Blue Mosque, hiki iā ʻoe ke kipa aku i ka Hale Hōʻikeʻike ʻo Topkapi Palace, ʻo Arasta Bazaar a me ka Hippodrome, nā mea āpau ma kahi mamao.
Hiki ke hele maʻalahi ka Sultanahmet Square e nā kaʻa lehulehu. Kū pololei ka laina tram T1 ma ka huinahā, e lilo ia i wahi maʻalahi loa e hele ai ma Istanbul. Me ka Istanbulkart, hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia ma ka hapa nui o nā kaʻa lehulehu, ʻaʻole maʻalahi wale ka hele ʻana i laila akā maʻalahi hoʻi.
ʻO kahi kipa i Sultanahmet Square i ka wā Kalikimaka e hāʻawi i kahi hui kūʻokoʻa o ka lewa hauʻoli a me ka nani o ka mōʻaukala. ʻO ia ka wahi kūpono e ʻike ai i ka mōʻaukala a me ka moʻomeheu ʻo Istanbul i kahi manawa kūikawā o ka makahiki.
Panina Manaʻo
ʻO ka Kalikimaka ma Istanbul he mea kupanaha a kū hoʻokahi. ʻO kēia metropolis ʻokoʻa, kahi e hoʻopili ai i nā ʻāina ʻelua, hāʻawi i kahi hui maikaʻi o ka nani kahiko a me ka flair hou. I ka wā Kalikimaka, lilo ʻo Istanbul i paradaiso ʻoliʻoli kahi e hauʻoli ai nā kamaʻāina a me nā malihini i kahi lewa kūikawā.
Mai nā alanui mōʻaukala o Sultanahmet Square, i hoʻopuni ʻia e nā hale monumental e like me Hagia Sophia a me ka Blue Mosque, i nā ʻāpana ola a me nā mea pena e like me Beyoğlu a me Kadıköy, hāʻawi ke kūlanakauhale i nā ʻike kūʻokoʻa. ʻO nā alanui a me nā mākeke i hoʻonani ʻia, e like me ka Spice Bazaar a me ka Grand Bazaar, he ʻahaʻaina maoli no ka naʻau. ʻO nā kukui ʻoliʻoli a me nā mea hoʻonani i nā hale kūʻai e like me Kanyon a me Istiklal Caddesi e hoʻohui i ka lewa kilokilo.
Hāʻawi nā hanana moʻomeheu, ʻahamele a me nā haʻawina i nā ʻike hohonu i ka moʻomeheu kūloko a me nā kiʻi. Hiki ke loaʻa nā mea leʻaleʻa kuʻina, mai ka ʻai kuʻuna Turkish a hiki i ka meaʻai honua, ma ke kūlanakauhale, me nā ʻike kuʻina kūikawā e kali ana i nā malihini ma nā kaiāulu e like me Ortaköy a me Moda.
ʻO ka loaʻa ʻana o nā ʻāpana like ʻole o ke kūlanakauhale ma o nā kaʻa lehulehu e like me nā kaʻa, nā ferries a me ka metro, i hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻia e ka Istanbulkart, e maʻalahi a leʻaleʻa i ke kūlanakauhale i ka wā Kalikimaka.
ʻO ka holoʻokoʻa, hāʻawi ʻo Istanbul i kahi hui hoihoi o ka mōʻaukala koʻikoʻi, ka ʻokoʻa moʻomeheu a me ka nani hoʻolauleʻa i ka wā Kalikimaka. ʻO ia ka manawa e hōʻike pono ai ke kūlanakauhale ʻaʻole wale i kona waiwai moʻomeheu, akā i kona hiki ke hoʻohui i ka kuʻuna a me ka wā hou, e hoʻohiwahiwa ana i nā malihini mai nā wahi a pau o ka honua.
