Istanbul is without a doubt one of the world’s biggest and most unique cities. Built on the banks of the Bosporus Strait in the north west of Turkey, Istanbul bridges two continents Asia and Europe and has a population somewhere in the vicinity of fifteen million.

Culturally, Istanbul reflects its unique geographical location as well as its long and complex history. The architecture is an incredible mixture of Roman, Byzantine, Ottoman, and modern styles. From mosques, palaces, and ancient city walls to more European neo-classical and art-nouveau structures.

Istanbul has a great number of sights, probably one of the most interesting spots of Istanbul is Hagia Sophia. Ayasofya is one of the most extraordinary buildings in the history of architecture. Ayasofya is the forth biggest Cathedral in the world with its 56m high dome, after Saint Paul in London, Saint Peter in Rome and Duomo in Milan, However the main fact is, it was built more than 1000 years ago from the others.

The most famous mosque in Istanbul is a Blue Mosque. It is very impressive with its beautiful domes and semi domes, nice courtyards and six slender minarets. Sultan Ahmet 1 founded the Blue Mosque. It was built between 1609- 1616 and also it was named after him. The whole complex was completed in 1616.

And, of course, you should visit the palaces in Istanbul, for example Dolmabahce. The word "Dolmabahce" in English means "The filled garden". Because the Dolmabahce Palace is founded upon a reclaimed area by filling up the sea. It's a beautiful 19th Century palace right by the Bosphorus, on the waterfront. It's in baroque and rococo style and very French. Many people think that it is a small model of the palace of Versailles in Paris, France.

Istanbul combines in itself ancient and modern, religious and secular, Asia and Europe, mystical and everything is exists here.

And all participants of the conference has a unique chance to visit this place.
