Istanbul
Istanbul, Turkey
Considered one of the world’s most beautiful cities, Istanbul is crisscrossed with sumptuous palaces, mosques and gardens where the sultans played; it’s also an energetic modern city of Greek, Armenian, Russian, Arab, religious and secular influences, where people from around the world still come to make their fortunes.
The program took place at Bahçeşehir's Galata campus, one of Turkey’s top universities, and home to Turkey’s leading journalism school. The campus is located on the stunning shores of the European Bosphorus, in the heart of Istanbul, and near all urban bus and ferry transport.
