Prepare to be enchanted by the sights and sounds of Istanbul!

This dynamic city resides in both Europe and Asia, separated only by the Bosphorus, a strait linking the Aegean Sea with the Sea of Marmora. While living history can be discovered around just about every corner, Istanbul and its residents are enjoying an influx of hip new galleries, shops, and restaurants, too.

Wander throughout the city's bazaars, religious houses, cafes, and museums--and then choose your personal favorites like a local. 

Study abroad by directly enrolling at a prestigious university or enrolling in courses at the IES Abroad Center, and soak in the mosaic of cultures and languages that surround you!
