A magnificent location that frames the historical peninsula with a rare angle, from the Bulgarian Church to the Fener Greek Patriarchate, from Hagia Sophia and the Şehzade Mosque to the Galata Tower, buildings that send shivers up and down one’s body, a wonderful project, a huge excavation site that resembles a beehive.

Pure copying is accepting something as correct or successful as is (such acquiescence is not in my soul), and I think that even the most beautiful idea or system can be challenged.
