Yes, another item struck off my bucket list. Have finally used The Tünel Underground funicular tram to get to the other end of Istiklal Avenue. Opened in 1875, and in operation for 139 years, I'm a little bit dissapointed that the tram itself is not like the wooden marvel that is Line A found in Buenos Aires.
Still, it was a quick and easy ride, with almost no crowd. Just take the ride down and take more pictures at the nostalgic ticket counter in Karakoy.
Anyway, we're exploring a bit and then we come across a Burger King. In we went.
Definitely drink way too much liquid for my own good . In no time I had to climb 3 floors up to use the toilet.
Hoardes of men could not get the door to open.
Me, I got in twice. First with help from an old lady who knocked on the door so persistently , when the young lady who was inside finally opened it, her stare was enough to make you pee on the spot. Frightening !
Next round, one of the staff let me in.
Bear in mind, both the men's and ladies have different codes, so all the best if you have an emergency lol.
Location : Istiklal Avenue, Taksim
