One of the best times of Istanbul is in spring. As soon as the sun shines, you can realize the first blossoms on the trees. The green grass and the shinning sun charms the hearts, the need for a break from all the buzz gets in the air. Beware! The sun brightens the day but the weather is not even considered warm yet. A glass of tea with the Bosphorous view is priceless.

The famous shopping malls such as Akmerkez, Kanyon, Istinye Park and seperate speciality shops are still on sale during March. For information on shopping click here.
