    I like the idea of Istanbul as Ive met many Turkish people who were really good fun - but surely Istanbul gets cold winters too - I recall last year watching Turkish Football games in Brussel Cafes - and they had weeks of cancellation due to snow.

    That said Istanbul will be on my visit list this year .

      Yes, it’s usually about 5 to 10 degrees in Istanbul in winter, but the sun still shines a lot. Can snow sometimes, but that just makes it even better; sunshine, freshness in the air, and snow on the minarets is pretty spectacular. There’s something about the sun in southern Europe that cheers one up; must be the light and the fact that you don’t need any artificial light around the place.
