ISTANBUL, TURKEY: Byzantium - Constantinople - Istanbul. Throughout its long and storied history, this enduring city has gone by many names and experienced much change - from being colonized by the ancient Greeks, to serving as the capital city for the Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman empires. It also notably served as a trading hub for caravans along the Silk Road, effectively connecting the Eastern and Western worlds. Such exposure to the varied cultures around the known world had a lasting effect - so much so that, today, it's a diverse city that's rife with contradictions. Its architecture shows definite signs of medieval European influence, while the expansive domes and skyward-reaching spires and minarets of its grand mosques and palatial buildings dominate the skyline. On this afternoon-into-evening virtual journey, you'll explore all the wonders that this historic city holds, as a driving, heart-pounding soundtrack urges you onward. It's a truly fascinating run - a blending of antiquity and the modern world you'll want to experience over and over.
