Istanbul is a shoppers city… some
fabulous malls, many of which are impressive in terms of their
architecture, choice of stores, and environment, as well as the
flag ship stores of International brands such as Prada, Channel and
Louis Vuitton in the Nisantasi district make this a great place to
indulge in some retail therapy, particularly with the sterling/
Lira exchange rate as favourable at it is for UK residents (Winter
2020).
