🇹🇷 8 Days in Magical Turkey for Just 2000 RMB! ✨

📌 Itinerary: Istanbul + Izmir (8D7N) 💰 Cost Breakdown: Visa: 473 RMB Multi-country SIM card: 30 RMB Izmir (excluding accommodation): 364 RMB (includes overnight bus) 1-night stay in Izmir: 144 RMB Istanbul expenses: 539 RMB 5-night stay in Istanbul: 435 RMB 📱 SIM Card Tip: Bring a multi-country SIM (91 RMB) to avoid local price gouging (locals vs. tourists pay very differently!). 🏠 Accommodation Istanbul: Hostel near Taksim Square (~80 RMB/night, 6-bed dorm with private bathroom). Izmir: Budget hotel (~140 RMB/night, basic but clean). 🚎 Transport Hacks Istanbul: Skip the red transit card—Visa contactless works (slightly pricier per ride but no card fee!). We mostly walked (2.3km = better than 2 bus transfers!). Izmir: Airport shuttle card (~200 TRY) can be reused for city buses! ⚠️ Bus Tickets: Use obilet app—off-season, buy at the station to avoid fees. 🍽️ Food on a Budget Izmir: Grilled chicken (100 TRY), ice cream (20 TRY/scoop). Istanbul: Burger King meal: 300+ TRY Local burger joint: 100+ TRY Street wraps: 80 TRY Must-try: Tavuk göğsü (chicken milk pudding), fırın sütlaç (baked rice pudding), pistachio chocolate (not too sweet!). 💡 Eat like a local: Avoid tourist traps—hundreds of TRY ≠ thousands! ⚠️ Survival Tips Airports: Free WiFi only 1 hour. Duty-free is luxury heaven, but food prices are in euros. Scams: Stay alert but don’t over-paranoid—just walk away if something feels off. Toilets: Pay-to-use (always carry coins!). Cats: Everywhere! 🐈⬛ #Istanbul #IstanbulTravel #BackpackingTurkey #CheapEats #TravelSmart
