Turkey - Istanbul, Gallipoli

原本想從巴黎飛去埃及，後來改成土耳其。
看多了基督教堂，這回到中東看看中東伊斯蘭教堂的特色。
不過，一些古老教堂是從基督改為伊斯蘭。

Stuck in traffic in Istanbul, trying to get to Gallipoli. Amazing how bad traffic is in a city of 20 million.

5 hours minibus ride from Istanbul to Gallipoli, we have some snacks.

I tried vegetarian for lunch, it was good.

We started the tour after lunch... Anzac Cove, Ari Burnu Cemetery, ANZAC commemorative site..

Respect to Mehmetcik Monument

Lone Pine Australian Memorial, Johnston's Jolly (Turkish and Allied trenches and tunnels)..

Turkish 57 Infantry Regiment Cemetery

The Nek, Chunuk Bair New Zealand Memorial..

After the tour, we took ferry to Canakkale. 
A group of students in the ferry. They having fun to feed the birds.

Some of them said hello to me, I hello back, and he/she told me their names, they wanted to take selfie with me. I think I am famous, so happy.
