Yes, sorry it is Istambul and not Stambul! I was using my native language and not English!

Hello:-)
My advise:
Visit Besiktas-Ortakoy Area.Dolmabahce Palace.Yildiz Palace.
Go to Ortakoy Center and go to House Café. Eat Lahmacun there. And drink their lemonade.
Go to Sariyer and eat fish near Bosphore at night.
Second day: Visit Sultanahmet. Ayasofya Museum, Topkapi Palace. If you have time you can go to visit Grand Bazaar.
Make a Bosphorus tour at night.
Third day: Go toNisantasi. You have a huge range of shopping possibility. This is a very nice area.
At night go to Beyoglu Taksim. Have fun at the clubs.
If you had a 4th day i would advice you to go to asian side to Moda but next time i hope.
If you visit these places you can have different views of Istanbul and people.
Because going to Sultanahmet is not seeing Istanbul.
This is the city guide:

You can choose another one. My advise Topkapı Palace and Saint Sophia and then Blue Mosque ...
They are very close each other ...
And then maybe second or third day, you can trip to Bosphorus and listen the waves and dream something :-)
Welcome and Have Fun

The name is Istanbul actually. Just going through the historical center will take you at least a week...
