The Galata Bridge is an iconic landmark of Istanbul, Turkey, that spans the Golden Horn. Being right in front of the spice market, it's the perfect photo opportunity and also the perfect place to watch Istanbul's iconic skylines. On one side, the Galata Tower, on the other, two big mosques: Suleymaniye and New Mosque. Beautiful Bosphorus Views as well as the famous fishermen. Avoid the restaurants underneath the bridge: usually bad quality and a tourist trap.
