Traditional Turkish Breakfast || All Pak Turk Tv

 In 'Discovery Series' I am wandering in Istanbul. We have spent 3 days in Istanbul. We visited historical Hagia Sophia mosque, Princes Island near Istanbul, first shopping mall Grand Bazar, Bosphorus Cruise, historical Taksim Square, Hazrat Abu Ayub Ansari (RA) shrine. We ate popular food of Turkey as well. I am going to visit Galata Tower. I'll have Trukish breakfast. Assalam o Alaikum! Turkey's journey is going on in Grip on Trip's new episode. I am wandering in Istanbul. I am standing near Glata Tower which is 550 years old. It is actually 1300 years old but it was destroyed in a war. This building is 550 years old. This tower was the highest building of its time. Even today when you watch some Turkish program, add or modeling shoot, you must watch this tower because it is a great iconic building of Istanbul. Unfortunately we cannot go up due to construction work. You see complete view of Bosphorus Bay, Sea of Marmra and the whole city

 GALATA TOWER TRIP

We will talk to police for a drone flight which seems difficult. There are different cafes in its right left area. A lot of couples have arrived here. Details about its stones, construction and history has been written on its walls. This area is called Galata due to Galata Tower. There are small cafes where people are taking tea and smoking cigarettes and chatting. Today's journey will be great but we will not be able to go up. We will explore this area. Stay with me. Breakfast is necessary before exploration of Galata Tower. Let's enjoy traditional Turkish breakfast first. I have come to Velvet cafe near Galata. They offer a traditional breakfast platter. This is cheese. Olive oil. Different spices. Jam. Peanut butter. Traditional jam: Tahina. It is made of sesame oil. Butter. Honey. Olives. Salad. Grapes. Our platter is complete with brown bread. It's donut type thing with chocolate and butter. They also sell it on carts. It's little hard with seeds on it. We will finish it with it and they have served sweet pie too. The smell is very tempting. Hafiz sab please take a walk and go far away. Where to start? Let's get with jam. They eat a lot of cheese. This bread is excellent.

Galata Tower Trip | Traditional 

Their science of utilizing space is excellent. The restaurant behind me is in a very small shop. They have decorated it so well outside as well that we preferred sitting outside. I will show you its interior. They are aesthetically intelligent and artists. This tower has 10 storyes. The lift takes you up to 7th floor and you go through stairs for next 3 floors. One of the attempts of man to fly in the air was made through Glata Tower. A Muslim scientist jumped from this tower and kept flying for 8 miles with the help of wings. Those wings have been preserved on its 10th floor. Unfortunately you cannot go up due to construction work. I would have shown you those wings and a cafe there. I show you picture of my last year's trip. These ladies are very hardworking. That cart is run by a middle aged woman. An other 50 plus woman is selling hairbands.

 The hotel where were staying, the breakfast was prepared by the owner of that hotel herself without a helper. These women are very confident. We have to make our women that confident. It gives me immense pleasure to see girls riding a bike in Pakistan. Girls should be more powerful. I get angry when I see people staring at them. It shakes their confidence. Avoid it, make them confident, support them and stand with them. In Turkey, what I liked most is their support for women. People make odd positions to take Galata Tower in pictures. Your back hurts as you are standing at its base.

You can capture it complete if you go far. People take Turkish tea in these cafes. It is a small cafeteria area with a lot of cafes. We cannot go up due to construction work. You have good options for photography around Galata. You can take a good view from different streets. We were enjoying postures of people while taking selfies. People were trying to adjust tower in the pictures. We took pictures for many people but when out turn came, they said that they did not have time to take picture. Finally we had one. Our Galata tour has come to an end. We explored its streets. There are many gift shops. Gifts start from 5 Lira souvenirs. Restaurants are very beautiful.
