I’d like to thank to all organizers of Istanbul 5 Days especially for amazing adventure party in Grand Bazar and exotic final stage on Heybeliada. And also to Jan for his article and pictures. See you in sandstony Valecov. Tradition has continued in sommer 2008.

Durukan: It was sooo much better than expected, so I thought I’d share it with people to let others get a chance as well:) I just wanted a week of vacation somewhere with a bit of orienteering after too much work lately, and found that Istanbul was at appropriate dates. I don’t regret a second;) Good organization and nice competitions. The Grand Bazar orienteering is one of the things all orienteers should have on their “Must-have-once-in-a-lifetime” list along with Karst terrain of Slovenia, Venezia street-o, orienteering at the Fjords in Western Norway, Jukola, 10Mila and O-Ringen (to take a few from the top of my head). There are also some areas in France which are high on my list, but still not explored;)

And for the record: As always, articles on World of O are not “sponsored” in any way – you can be sure that content in articles written here are objective.
