"Istanbul's stone and earth is golden" as the saying promised , ending up with 13 million residents, Istanbul is too big for one and too small for 13 million to find out a way to cope with. One just needs to let herself get lost in the flow of the crowd; there the white stripes on the pavement doesn't mean you can cross the street nor the dozens of policemen standing there intends your safety; but that crowd is hardboiled and won't let you down easily.
