Walking through the streets of Istanbul
Istanbul giant crowded and different historical sights and not just the city that each year collects on its territory crowds. But equally interesting side of it are the usual residential streets, which usually does not lead hiking trails. It is dedicated to them, and today's story. Somewhere dilapidated somewhere unwashed; somewhere buzzing million votes, sometime lonely and deserted; somewhere storing traces of earthquakes and fires, somewhere abandoned and useless. But everywhere they live people. Huddling closely, cursing, trading or have fun ...
Contrasts.
They are in any journey and it contrasts allow you to fully taste the unusual and unique of the place in which you came.
You can only see one side, or just another visit very top places or, on the contrary, climbs out of garbage dumps and slums.
Happy with the Bosporus, it looks completely different.
But notice how heterogeneous urban development. The water level is very clearly seen "bundle" of the city on various "levels" - from small, huddled together narrow houses on the "bottom" before rushing into the sky skyscrapers business districts of Istanbul
We walk through the streets that curl closer to the "bottom" of the cake, where the common people lived
From the inside, they look quite different than the Strait or the top of the window sitting down at the airport Ataturk aircraft, where all the roofs look exactly the same.
Contrasts are at every step. The streets are narrow, the houses looms close to the roadway, most of which are usually crowded with parked cars. Sometimes two or even three rows.
In these areas live a lot of immigrants who come from can. Especially a lot in recent years moved to the Syrians because of ongoing events in the country.
Many blacks, Arabs and Russian-speaking.
Normal life of an ordinary street. At some point, this picture is even something reminded me of Soviet childhood. Only the streets were wider
Unsuited home, mandatory trading, nestled in the gateway hotel and unchanging porter volokuschy dimensionless trunk commodity
Houses along the railway line. There is a bit of sunlight. In return, residents receive little from the constant rumble constantly speeding passenger train.
An endless stream of people
Lookup. In fact, every narrow staircase - is a separate house. Tiny apartment.
Slums in the neighborhood of "luxurious" apartment house with large balconies and apartments
Not quite the usual large "socket." Just as in the USSR "Khruschovka».
So sign nearby. In this area, as it turns out, it is really living and doing business a lot of immigrants from the former Soviet Union
Individual attention Istanbul home. Some coherent urban policy, at least in the old city quarters there.
Houses stand in his own way. Total one thing - they are narrow and stand huddled "shoulder" to each other.
The houses can shoot endlessly and make huge collages.
It is quite normal to find even completely wooden house in the middle of ordinary buildings.
By the way, often, these wooden houses are abandoned. Typically, due to fires. Fires, unfortunately, this is such a hallmark of the Istanbul Statement. Moreover, since time immemorial. Do not be surprised if it turns out that Istanbul is the first in the world in the number of fires in its history.
Dilapidated and abandoned are not only wooden houses. Grabs and stone. Moreover, even in iconic locations. How, for example, about the Post Office.
Common to see houses built directly into / under / over what some historic walls or buildings.
Sometimes, even on the ruins of a fairly well-known castles or palaces, as here, on the site of a Byzantine palace Boukoleon.
Close to the business side of Istanbul, the house looks very different. In rich. But the same narrow, huddled skinny shoulders.
Dear District with expensive restaurants. It's along the promenade leading to the fortress of Rumeli Hisar.
Expensive restaurants, huddled under the brand "affordable" houses seemingly
And very different looks Beyoglu
There are a lot of dilapidated or half-destroyed houses. It traces the constant earthquakes. Not all stone houses withstand severe tremors and partially or even completely destroyed.
In this photo visible portion of the free (!!!) the ground. There used to be huddled in the corner of the house. But it was destroyed by an earthquake. At the next house even left parts of the walls, painted flats residents disappeared.
The left wall of the sewer even ...
But not all throw their dilapidated houses. Some of their results in order and put up for sale, still moving in a seismically quiet area.
Houses for sale, there are a lot.
But step aside, and on the street everyday life flows. Eternal trade ... trade is anywhere and anything.
For example, the shop "Naphthalene Vintage." Trades mothballs)
Such things even in our flea markets still need to look - old phones, televisions, gramophones, etc.
Wanted to afford even to buy a suitcase)
Children running around constantly begging ...
or just playing on the road in football.
But there is also the slums ...
And, judging by the fact that even the walls and roof are made of something horrible, living here is not sweet.
Sorry, I did not have time to walk their streets and
This palace in the slums ... Let the end of the fasting will be on a positive note)
