The world's only city on two continents has been a crossroads of trade, culture, learning and art for over 3,000 years as well as the capital of three of the greatest empires the world has known. It is no accident that Istanbul was the city the Eastern Roman emperors, the Byzantine dynasty and the Ottoman sultans chose to call home.

Because the city offers a unique combination of accessibility, variety and natural beauty. And to that natural beauty, those empires added their own artistic and architectural masterpieces, making Istanbul one of the world's great cultural treasure houses. The names themselves conjure up exotic visions. Haghia Sophia. The Grand Bazaar. The Blue Mosque. The Basilica Cistern. Topkap> Palace.

These are complemented by the masterpieces of hospitality and versatility that are Istanbul's hotels, convention centers and exhibition facilities. Award- winning. State-of-the-art. Experienced. Elegant.
