>> RYAN: This city is huge, vibrant, and full of history

>> ASHA: And it is the only city on Earth that belongs to two continents

>> RYAN: Yes, it is so big we need to go right now or we're gonna miss it. Let's go!

>> ASHA: Istanbul is by far my favorite city now

and the sights are stunning the mosques that we're going into they have these tiled roofs and domes

they are like nothing I've ever seen once you get in it is breathtaking

>> RYAN: Istanbul is incredible

it is like nowhere I've ever been before

here we go, bellydancers!

This is what you want to get at the spice market, the Baklava

I got some Baklava and ice cream I didn't know they went well together but they do

>> RYAN: And the people are incredibly just warm and playful

it's the friendliest place I've ever been to even buying ice cream is an adventure in Istanbul

man, I earned this ice cream I'm sweating

>> ASHA: Even drinking coffee is an adventure as soon as you finish your glass

they'll turn your cup over then they start reading the coffee grinds that are left in your cup

and so they tell your whole fortune for you it's so much fun

>> RYAN: Welcome to Istanbul haha

You feel the buzz right away

>> ASHA: I'm gonna try one out of my nose

now I'm gonna try circles I don't think that was right

This right here is Turkish pizza and this is what you eat before you have the Kabob absolutely delicious

Turkish delight has a really interesting texture it's gummy, with nuts so a little bit soft and hard

it's perfect definitely the Turkish Delight

everybody who goes there is bound to have a good time

this unassuming clear liquid is called Raki

you don't drink this without a meal so I have a nice seabass right here to soak it all up

these guys have been here all day long fishing right in the middle of Istanbul

>> ASHA: It's mind blowing to think that right there is Europe and right there is Asia

it's the only city on Earth that straddles two continents

>> RYAN: Wow, Istanbul is amazing

>> ASHA: We absolutely love this place I think my favorite part had to be seeing the blue mosque

and also the rug demonstration

>> RYAN: My favorite part was definitely seeing all the beautiful sights

but it was really just hanging out with the locals drinking tea and smoking hookah

>> ASHA: You will absolutely love this city

>> RYAN: You're gonna love it
