Day 11 - Back in Istanbul - Galata Tower

 Day 11 - Back in Istanbul.

We stayed in an AirBnB apartment this time around. Located in district of Beyoglu, this rented apartment is on the 3rd floor (I think!) of an old building... but inside, the apartment is sooo cantik!

Yours truly, Izzaty and Izzat would be staying here for a night only, while the others would stay longer as the 3 of us would be catching the flight back home tomorrow night.

After settling down and solat... we decided to hunt for an Indonesian Restaurant which we googled earlier - Google Map says the restaurant is not far from our AirBnb.

Jalan2 cari makan... 

And we found it!!

KOALI Lounge & Dine. Yeay! I was craving for a spicy food for days!

Everybody was super hungry... it was a super late lunch cum early dinner for us.

The appetiser..

Karipap, tempe... with sambal kicap... yum yum!

I chose to eat ayam gaprek - pedas level 4. Oh wow!!! Berpeluh2 makan!

I wanted to request for level 8... perghh... nasib baik Izzaty stopped me Lol!

If you're a fan of spicy food... you should try it... it is super yummy!! Love it 💓

We later decided to go to Galata Tower.
Galata Tower is one of the dominating landmarks of Istanbul. It was used as a watchtower to help defend the city.  I never got the chance to visit this tower in my previous visits... so I was quite excited to visit the tower in this time around! We wanted to see the the sunset view from Galata Tower 😍

Again, we used the Museum Pass to enter the tower (thanks god we escaped the long queue to buy the entrance ticket! Everyone was aiming to get the sunset view from the tower!)

Alhamdulillah... we got to see an amazing 350 degree panaromic view of the city of Istanbul form Galata tower duing sunset... MasyaAllah... so beautiful!!😍😍😍
Ahhhhmazinggg view right? Subahanallah...

Inside Galata Tower..

We went up the tower using elevator, but to go down, no choice but using staircase all the way down.
