Traditional Stained Glass Painting Workshop yorumu
Lost for something to do with an afternoon I booked this traditional stained glass painting workshop on a whim. But I’m so glad I did. It truly was the highlight of my trip to Istanbul. The class itself is great but the people make it exceptional. Ali (who owns the café which hosts the workshop), helped me to the venue, he was incredibly friendly and was more than happy to offer advice on hidden gems in the city, as well as good conversation. The café itself is a gem, up a small street the interior and partially covered garden is like an oasis from the hustle and bustle of the city. Eda ran the class. She was very knowledgeable about the history of Istanbul and the art of stained glass, which gave context to the activity. She was always on hand to help, and was incredibly welcoming. Both Eda and Ali made me feel like part of the family. The tea and biscuites flowed throughout the session and there were lots of laughs. I came away with a new skill, a broad smile, and a great souvenir.
