Thread: Map for shopping in Istanbul!

I have a new toy!!! ..g.:

Google maps are the bomb

Look what I did today instead of working....

I will add more addresses and also put the link on my website.
So you can print out your own shopping map. And yes, Bella is faaaar away from the center!

Just to add: You can zoom in and out, drag the map around and click on any of the elements to get additional information. Isn't it cool?

It makes me want to go to Istanbul right now !!

Me too!

The good thing is that I will go to Istanbul for an entire week in May!

Can't wait to walk through the Kapali Carsi and see all the there!

I will probably add some more addresses after that.

BTW, would you people also be interested in non-dance addresses like hamams to be displayed in the map? I will leave out the mosques etc. because you can find those in any guide book.

Hammams, good idea.
But it would be great if you could add places where to see dancers !

I've been playing with this new toy too (I mean Google Maps), instead of working of course, and it's great, I've prepared a map for the attendees of the next big workshop that I organize, so they can find the studio easily, I'm very happy of it !

So thank you for your map and for finding this tool !

The places to see dancers are already in the map! See the yellow marks?

BTW, I just got an e-mail from a dancer who went to Istanbul some weeks ago.
Apparently they changed the street numbers on Istiklal Caddesi. So SIM is 57 now instead of 87...
Will check this out in a few weeks

MEISSOUN

neato! thanks, meissoun. were you a tour guide in a past life? lol...
this also reminds me to check your links to costumers web sites!
I (ahem) "unveiled' my very first SIM last night for a turkish wedding. I felt so pretty!
