Shopping In Via port Asia, Istanbul

People thought I was crazy, going to Istanbul with my husband for shopping in only one day. Yes, Why not. I booked a 1 day trip in November with Pegasus airlines that left Beirut in the early morning and returned at night. I only visited 1 outlet mall: the Viaport Asia outlet shopping and what a mall. It is Turkey’s largest shopping and entertainment center and it is only 10 minutes away from Sabiha Gökçen Airport. I planned my visit earlier by checking every single shop in the mall and I found out that I don’t have time to visit other malls. My concern was the luggage but I contacted the hotel that is a part of the mall and asked them if I can leave my items there and have breakfast in their restaurant and they accepted. The mall opens at 10 AM and my journey of shopping begun. The time flied and I realized that some shops on my list was not visited yet.
From the shops that I visited: U.S. Polo Assn, Soobe, Twist, Ipekyol, Koton, Joker, LcWaikiki, Mango, Mavi….

Going to Istanbul for shopping was worth it as I bought all my Christmas gifts for cheaper prices but realized that for next time 2 days would be better.
