Time Off

 

Suggestions for Off-Conference Time

Istanbul has a vibrant cultural life. You may want to catch a few of the concerts or visit some of the museums in the city when you have free time. We have compiled for you some of the events which will be going on between the dates of Sunday, December 8th through Saturday, December 14th, or the week during part of which the conference will take place. Even during this single week you may get a chance to hear world-renowned artists and orchestras, both local and international. The city’s historic palaces and museums with their extraordinary collections are also not to be missed. We hope you manage to work some of them around your conference schedule. In fact, below is only a sampling of the many treasures Istanbul harbors. Please check the Web site of Turkey’s Ministry of Culture and Tourism for a full list or the individual Web pages of the museums and concert halls.
