What I know is that Istanbul is both European and Asian, a peculiarity of the city. By the way, I hope the skyline of Istanbul never overshadows the historical part of the city, but they're doing great until now.

of the pictures that i have seen of Istanbul, it is a lovely city, with beutiful old parts and the mayor doing a great job revitalising the city, but i'm sorry the scrapers and the skyline is not at all my favourite, maybe it's all those twin towers (why???) and generally the highrises not looking very nice, it's rather just a big mess.

to put it a different way, while being a skyscraper fan, the skyline of Istanbul is the last thing that would make me visit. And yes, half of it is in Europe, allthough Ankara certainly isn't.

***www.sercan.de*** · April 26th, 2010, 02:05 PM

Yes, no highrises are allowed in the historical peninsula.

Yes, we have to many twins, because on the 1980-1990s land was cheaper than high towers.
So many built 2x30 floors instead of 1x 60fl.

Now its the opposite

istanbils biggest disadvantage is the size
we have many clusters

Ukraine is in Europe and Moscow is also in Europe.

Moscow isn't in Europe? Haha, what skewed atlas are you looking at? Moscow is definitely a European city, geographically speaking, of course.
