Formerly known as Constantinople, the former #Byzantine_Empire’s capital, #Istanbul is at the edges of the #Asian and #European continents. Its rich #history, fast-paced #rhythm, and #delicious cuisine will transport you to another world. The best way to visit #Istanbul – or any city, really – is by foot. Start your day with a simple, #traditional_breakfast composed of a #sesame bagel-like #bread – simit – with cheese and a pot of mint tea or #Turkish_coffee. These can be bought from street merchants, contributing to the authentic #Turkish experience. After #breakfast, take a walk on #Istiklal_street toward #Galata_Tower, one of the oldest towers in the world, for a panoramic view of the busy city, its many Mosques, the #Aegean_Sea, andHagia Sofia, one of the most visited #monuments in the world. The latter will be your next walking-#tour stop. https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx71XX2gjUx/?igshid=1gtclhq2qvc5t

Get ready to be blown away by #Patagonia’s dramatic #mountaintop glaciers, and awe-inspiring landscape. Covering roughly one and a half times the size of the #United_Kingdom, #Patagonia is a sparsely populated region located at the #southern end of the #Americas. Its west and east #coasts face the #Pacific and #Atlantic_oceans, respectively.  From #Argentina’s #Los_Glaciares_National_Park to #Chiles’s_Paine_National_Park and #Tierra_del_Fuego , you will find yourself at the ends of the earth, in the middle of an immense site of pure wilderness, sculpted rock towers (#Cordillera), pristine #lakes, #dense_forests, and impressive silences.
