Some years ago I took a 7 days tour of Istanbul, I thought it should be too long for just one city, but after the trip my opinion was changed, you can stay for more than one month in this city and everyday find something new.

Thanks for your kind comment. One month is real long, you can be sure that you have more knowledge about İstanbul than many people who live in Istanbul.
