    Prachtig gerestaureerd en prachtig interieur, maar ik zou er toch niet willen wonen, bang om iets stuk te maken. Ben je al eens in Istanbul geweest? Een prachtige stad, ben er lang geleden al 3 keer geweest en zou heel graag nog eens terug gaan, nu om digitale foto's te nemen ;)

    Schitterend dat wel, al vraag ik me soms af waar al die pracht en praal allemaal voor nodig is @->--
