As I mentioned the last time I was here, the traffic is so bad in this city. Since we are on the north end of the city- to get to all the cool places it takes about an hour- 1 1/2 hours to get there and $40 so luckily our hotel is a short walk to the metro. It is Soooo far down in the ground, it was three long escalators down, then yet another escalator after you get your ticket- nothing like the short staircase to the subway in Chicago. It was only 2Lira, so about 1.25 to ride it- any distance you want. so that was a steal and it's so fast. There are only 10 stops, and from where we are staying to Taksim square only took 20 minutes- and 1.25. It is really clean, and bright, so nothing to be worried about. It only has 1 line, and hits all the great places in the city.
