Istanbul, formerly Constantinople, is the largest city in Turkey. Having been the capital of both the Byzantine and Ottoman empire, Istanbul has been a coveted city for more than 2,500 years.<\/p>\n
At the peak of its power, the Ottoman empire stretched all throughout the1 Middle East and North Africa. Acting as a bridge between Europe and Asia, Istanbul has also been heavily influenced by western progressivism.<\/p>\n
In spite of its global influx and modernization, the Turks remain one of the largest frontier people groups on the planet. It is for reasons such as these that Istanbul represents a significant, strategic hub for the church.<\/p>\n"},{"key":"google_map","label":"Google map","value":{"ID":657,"id":657,"title":"ISTANBUL_Page_1_Image_0002","filename":"ISTANBUL_Page_1_Image_0002.jpg","filesize":133332,"url":"https:\/\/110cities.gopray.world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ISTANBUL_Page_1_Image_0002.jpg","link":"https:\/\/110cities.gopray.world\/id\/blog\/cities\/istanbul\/istanbul_page_1_image_0002\/","alt":"","author":"3","description":"","caption":"","name":"istanbul_page_1_image_0002","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":655,"date":"2022-11-29 20:59:32","modified":"2022-11-29 20:59:32","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/110cities.gopray.world\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1435,"height":1105,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/110cities.gopray.world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ISTANBUL_Page_1_Image_0002-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/110cities.gopray.world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ISTANBUL_Page_1_Image_0002-350x270.jpg","medium-width":350,"medium-height":270,"medium_large":"https:\/\/110cities.gopray.world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ISTANBUL_Page_1_Image_0002-768x591.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":591,"large":"https:\/\/110cities.gopray.world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ISTANBUL_Page_1_Image_0002-1200x924.jpg","large-width":1200,"large-height":924,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/110cities.gopray.world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ISTANBUL_Page_1_Image_0002.jpg","1536x1536-width":1435,"1536x1536-height":1105,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/110cities.gopray.world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ISTANBUL_Page_1_Image_0002.jpg","2048x2048-width":1435,"2048x2048-height":1105,"trp-custom-language-flag":"https:\/\/110cities.gopray.world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ISTANBUL_Page_1_Image_0002-16x12.jpg","trp-custom-language-flag-width":16,"trp-custom-language-flag-height":12}}},{"key":"people_group_1","label":"People Group 1","value":"Turk"},{"key":"people_group_link_1","label":"People Group Link 1","value":"https:\/\/joshuaproject.net\/people_groups\/18274\/TU"},{"key":"people_group_2","label":"People Group 2","value":"Kyrgyz"},{"key":"people_group_link_2","label":"People Group Link 2","value":"https:\/\/joshuaproject.net\/people_groups\/12933\/TU"},{"key":"people_group_3","label":"People Group 3","value":"Tatar"},{"key":"people_group_link_3","label":"People Group Link 3","value":"https:\/\/joshuaproject.net\/people_groups\/15284\/TU"},{"key":"people_group_4","label":"People Group 4","value":"Uyghur"},{"key":"people_group_link_4","label":"People Group Link 4","value":"https:\/\/joshuaproject.net\/people_groups\/15755\/TU"},{"key":"people_group_5","label":"People Group 5","value":""},{"key":"people_group_link_5","label":"People Group Link 5","value":""},{"key":"people_group_6","label":"People Group 6","value":""},{"key":"people_group_link_6","label":"People Group Link 6","value":""},{"key":"people_group_7","label":"People Group 7","value":""},{"key":"people_group_link_7","label":"People Group Link 7","value":""},{"key":"people_group_8","label":"People Group 8","value":""},{"key":"people_group_link_8","label":"People Group Link 8","value":""},{"key":"prayer_emphasis","label":"Prayer Emphasis","value":"
