THE SOCIAL ANGLE
Welcome Reception on June 11, 2006

total population of the city was around one
million inhabitants and Istanbulites enjoyed
vast playgrounds, orchards, open air casinos
and parks. Hence, Istanbul Hilton occupies
gardens that used to be a well-known park.
All of the participants are invited to the
welcome reception organized at the hotel
poolside under the shade and whisper
of cypress trees and the scent of the rose
gardens that surround the pool.
