Turkey (Canakkale / Istanbul) Nov 2018 - Part 2 D-8


1) Site of ancient Troy, Canakkale (UNESCO World Heritage site) - Part 2 


2) The Trojan Horse 



3) Ferry Crossing from Canakkle to Gelibolu for lunch & then a bus ride towards Istanbul; It was quite a fun to watch our tour members taking the opportunity to feed the flying seagulls with bread crumbs which they bought from a supermarket located opposite our hotel in Canakkale ! 


4) Ferry Terminal - Gelibolu - spared a few minutes of my time after lunch and took these pictures -  a very scenic place, good for a short walk before heading back to Istanbul ! 


5) Historical Hippodrome, Istanbul - this was listed in the Day 2 activity together with a visit to Blue Mosque but due to the Friday closing of the Blue Mosque, the Hippodrome visit was deferred to the last two day of our tour itinerary.
