Istanbul where I live

"Fortunately, there is Istanbul that 'protects itself'. It is heartening to take shelter in it in my Istanbul adventure. Istanbul, which protects itself, sometimes comes across you in literature, painting, or an old photograph. Sometimes, in a narrow street, time passes. A fountain that has survived, a cemetery that you sometimes pass by, a small neighborhood mosque, a ruin dating back to the Byzantine period, clouds of purple wisteria spraying from the walls, country brown, sometimes just a hard candy with spices or a crimson and clove-scented puerperal candy that suddenly appears, who knows more. "Selim Ileri, who has been following the traces of Istanbul like a debt of gratitude for years, describes the thousands of years of life of the unique city, its historical heritage, its cultural heritage from its architectural texture to its cuisine. examines in countless details, from writers, poets to painters, theater and cinema artists.
