After spending the whole morning at the Haghia Sofia, we walked towards the Topkapi Palace which unfortunately was closed for that day of the week. So we decided the explore the residential street that runs along the wall of the Topkapi Museum. The street was lined by residences of the officilas of the palace and today is probably occupied by senior beaurocrats of the city. The street is a long downhill road that led to the Istanbul Archeological Museum. We stopped for coffee at one of the street stalls.
