Mosque
Mosque is an important space for Istanbul citizens which is not only the symbol of Islamic culture but also an place where people can meet and gather in daily life . Mosques were built every where in the city with the communities as landmarks. In istanbul the mosques serves as a centre for information,education and tourists. The architectural characters such as domes,minerats and prayer's halls make mosques distinguish from other building types.
Turk Balon
I found this hot air balloon near the sea side of Kadikoy.It might be the most obvious landmark of the area. Normally the Balloon is anchored to the ground and under it there is a restaurant and cafe. here is the descriptions;
"This balloon carries 30 people and one pilot. The diameter of the balloon is 22 meters, and it rises to a height of 200 meters according to their brochure; therefore, locals and tourists can enjoy a 15 minute, 360 degree view of the beautiful city of Istanbul..."
Istanbul has the tradition of flying with balloon,which can be seen from the annual balloon festival and the famous balloon tour in Cappadocia.The turk balon in Kadikoy is one of mobile devices which i want to borrow for the carnival site from Istanbul city,which may act as a temporary landmark of the site.Ceremonies and events can take place in the open space under the balloon.As the Carnival moves on,the balloon may move around the site and to organise various of activities.
