I read a German tourist was stabbed to death on the streets in Istanbul because he wouldn’t give a homeless man some change. I am planning to visit Istanbul and wonder what the day-to-day life is like there. Should I leave my money in a safe deposit and is it best to dress down?
Please Reply.Thanks
