Istanbul recently welcomed four massive cruise ships at Galataport and Sarayburnu ports, creating a striking visual as the ships loomed over nearby buildings. These ships, resembling floating cities, have significantly boosted tourism in the city. Notably, the Norwegian Viva, Mein Schiff 5, Ms Marina, and Astoria Grande, with varying lengths and heights, were all docked simultaneously, creating a unique spectacle for the city.
