Istanbul is a very big city, that keeps growing all the time. Though the central area seems somewhat controlled (thanks God, thus preserving some authenticity), there are a few "islands" where skyscrapers grow side by side, and construction continues, larger and higher.
The owner of the white car (on the right) tried to park his car. However the car slipped because of the ice on the hill. The car in the middle slipped as well. But because of the small truck (on the left) he could not move much so his back was in the air and the white car filled the gap. Nature :))
When it snows be careful in Istanbul. The municipalities do not work properly and you can have accidents everywhere especiall on the hills. Not only your car, but while walking you can slip as well.
Ambulance (tel. 112; International Hospital Ambulance, tel. 212/663-3000). Hospitals: American Hospital, (Güzelbahçe Sok. 20, Nisantas, tel. 212/231-4050); International Hospital (Istanbul Cad. 82, Yesilköy, tel. 212/663-3000); and German Hospital (Siraselviler Cad. 119, Taksim, tel. 212/293-2150) are good sources for an English-speaking doctor. 24-hour pharmacies (tel. 111). There's a pharmacy in every neighborhood, and all Istanbul pharmacies post the name and address of the nearest one open around the clock. Taksim (Istiklal Cad. 17, tel. 212/244-3195) is centrally located in the Taksim district. Tourism police (tel. 212/527-4503).
Emirgan is famous for its seaside cafes and the large city park on the slopes behind it. The Verifier Yahsi (seaside mansion) on the shore and the pavilions inside the park that serve as cafes are examples of Ottoman architecture from different ages.
The annual Tulip Festival is held in the park, which contains pools, groves and lanes suitable for hiking and jogging. It is a popular recreation area, particularly on holidays. Below the park is the small bay of Istinye, which for many years housed the shipyards. These have been removed recently, and the area has been restored as a recreational area and marina.
The modern highways across the hilltops run to the sea in Istinye and Tarabya. The latter is an old settlement around an extremely beautiful and well-known bay. The district is famous for the summer residences of the President of Turkey,the american consulate and the German embassy, the beach facilities, a 5-star hotel and the restaurants lining the shore.
The fruit and veg here is bigger than anything we have in the UK and bloody cheap! It was great staying with a local family because I was able to buy ingredients for the evening meal and help prepare them! The stall-holders are very proud of their produce too, and the younger ones are quite happy to pose for a photo - but do ask first! The local produce is great value! next to nothing for fruit and veg

Q: day boat trip to black sea at end of November? "Hi! I'll be in Istanbul in the last week of November and first week of December. Do the boats still run to the Black Sea for..."
A: "I don't know if they will run then, but anyway they don't quite go all the way to the Black Sea, only nearly."
