Crossing the Street

The large cities in Turkey, like large cities everywhere, have streets which are particularly hazardous for pedestrians wishing to cross them. The Turks have come up with a unique solution to safely getting hordes of pedestrians across the street. At major intersections are pedestrian subways. These pedestrian subways are so unique because, instead of being the smelly, dirty, often unsafe pedestrian subways of many cities, these have shops in them, making them part pedestrian subway and part shopping mall. Now that is what I call civilized.
