Crumbling and decrepit, the city walls
that once surrounded Istanbul remain an integral part of the city.
Lining the main roads cars go in and out of the ancient wall
entrances as an integral part of society. Forts tower above the hills
where Turkish flags still wave in the breeze. Although farmers have
claimed the surrounding land where water runs off these ancient
walls, it still remains a center piece of tourism in Istanbul and
some of the most beautiful spots of the city.
