- After that proceed to the district of Ortakoy, a bubbling area with open-air cafes, art boutiques, handicraft market and colorful stalls.
- After dinner, transfer to the airport for your flight to Kuala Lumpur

1) Suleymaniye Mosque (1,550-1,557), Istanbul - the interior décor of this mosque is very impressive ! Overall, this mosque is magnificent looking, stunning & outstanding, a class of it's own !  


2) Sultanahmet Camii (Blue Mosque), Istanbul (1609-1616) - just in time to enter before the 3.30pm session closing; mosque is under restoration, a quick visit for our tour group so just be there and done that since Blue Mosque is rated as one of the must see in Istanbul !
