Black and white

An afternoon spent wandering about in a very sunny and crowded Beşiktaş - as  football fans gathered in wandering pockets of people, congregating in the centre, the heart of the district, getting excited for the evening's match. Football is a national passion in Turkey, and Beşiktaş (also known as "the black and whites") is one of the most successful teams both in Istanbul and nationally. 

The Big Three (Turkish: Üç büyükler) is the nickname of the three most successful sports clubs in Turkey, all three based in Istanbul, Turkey's largest city. The football teams of Beşiktaş, Fenerbahçe and Galatasaray have a great rivalry, and are usually the main contenders for the title. (Wikipedia)
