Jim’s Perspectives:

Have been to Turkey twice, once with my dad when visiting Kusadasi, a coastal town approximate with the Greek islands. The second time I visited, I spent several days in Istanbul, Turkey’s largest city. Went to see the awe-inspiring architecture of the TopkapI Palace and the Sultan Ahmed Mosque.
