Hidiv Kasri

hidiv Hidiv Pavilion is located on the hills of Cubuklu neighborhood in Beykoz district on the Asian side of Istanbul. It was built in 1907 by Italian architect Delfo Seminati as a residence for the Ottoman governor (Hidiv or Khedive) of Egypt, Abbas Hilmi Pasha. The mansion sits in a large area and at the main entrance there is a monumental fountain, rising all the way to the roof which is covered with stain glass. Other fine fountains and pools surround the building. Several rooms and halls are connected to each other on a circle plan, and there is a large hall at the ground level with a fire place. On the upper floors there are two great bedrooms. The tower is the most popular section of the kiosk because of its view over the Bosphorus, one can access to the terrace on top with an elevator or by stairs.

The Hidiv kiosk was sold to the Istanbul Municipality in the 1930s and not used much until 1980s. After a two year restoration period, Hidiv Kiosk was opened in 1984 as a hotel, restaurant and cafeteria. It's open everyday.

Hands down, Apple's app store wins by a mile. It's a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I'm not sure I'd want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

I dont know who you think you are, but youre just blowing smoke out your ears.  Nothing youre saying makes sense and its all a bunch of immature ranting.  If you want people to get behind your blog, you should at the very least learn a little something about what youre talking about!

I must say, as much as I enjoyed reading what you had to say, I couldnt help but lose interest after a while.  Its as if you had a great grasp on the subject matter, but you forgot to include your readers.  Perhaps you should think about this from more than one angle.  Or maybe you shouldnt generalise so much.  Its better if you think about what others may have to say instead of just going for a gut reaction to the subject.  Think about adjusting your own thought process and giving others who may read this the benefit of the doubt.

What I want to know is why you didnt think to include the other side of this issue?  There are so many things that youre missing here that I dont see how you could actually form an intelligent opinion on the subject.  Its like you didnt even consider that there me be another side here.  Im kind of disappointed.

I was wondering if you ever considered changing the layout of your blog?  Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.  But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better.  Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or two images.  Maybe you could space it out better?

The next time I read a blog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one.  I mean, I know it was my choice to read, but I actually thought youd have something interesting to say.  All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you could fix if you werent too busy looking for attention.

This is a smart blog.  I mean it.  You have so much knowledge about this issue, and so much passion.  You also know how to make people rally behind it, obviously from the responses.  Youve got a design here thats not too flashy, but makes a statement as big as what youre saying.  Great job, indeed.
