In a nutshell

Romantic and relaxing day trip from noisy Istanbul
morgr Says: It is probably the first thing you will notice upon your first glimpse of Anadolu Kavagi from the ferry boat, perched atop the hill with its two crumbling towers.It is, according to my ever useful guidebook, Byzantine in origine. The cross logo is proof of this. However it...
