I love cities that have historical stuff in it like those castles, and not just a bunch of overly modern architecture shot up trying to mimick the western world. Also I love hilly type of terrains for architecture. Nice place.

Byzantine - Constantinople - Istanbul

The Turks inherited this great city nonetheless a beautiful domain sustained by the Ottomans.

The only nation that used to be a Muslim conquer that is not in poverty or in civil war chaos. maybe the lesson of this successes story is--a mixed middle with Christians and muslims should be in order.
