Question

okay guys I'm going to Turkey and Greece, my family as most of you probably know for my profile is the pontus area and Istanbul, what sites would it be interesting for me to see? Where should I go? Lol I cant wait for this trip! (for the most part the trip is already planned, but I still might want to add a few places to the list if you guys sell me on it)
