A pair of 50 Kurus ship stamps were used on this postcard. The round postmark is not very clear and the dark shaded background of the stamps made it harder to recognize the words on the postmark.

TR-P2
This postcard shows part of the UNESCO World Heritage Area, "Historic Area of Istanbul". İstanbul, as written in Turkish, is an ancient city and also one of the megacity. It extends across two continents, the Europe and Asia. The six-minarets Sultan Ahmed Mosque (Sultanahmet Camii) is shown here. This mosque is also known as Blue Mosque due to the blue color tiles used adorning its interior walls. The two shorter obelisks are at the right side of the postcard. The water body at the background is where the Bosphorus Strait meets the Sea of Marmara. Thanks roseberry.
