Match Day Colors It was match day when I took this photo along the shore of the Bosphorus. Istanbul has several superb football (soccer) teams named for the districts in the city from which they originally sprang: Besiktas (black and white), Fenerbahçe (yellow and purple), Galatasaray (yellow and red). Lots of people travel to Turkey to see matches, of course, but if you're not a fan or going to the match, it's a good idea to be far away when the match is over: traffic jams are enormous and long-lived. |
