People who enjoy nothing more than hitting local shops and hunting for bargains during their holidays might be interested in paying a visit to Istanbul this year to experience a popular annual event.

The 2012 Istanbul Shopping Fest will take place in Turkey's largest city from 9 to 29 June.

According to the country's national tourism agency, the festival offers fun shopping experiences and also incorporates some of the destination's historical and cultural assets.

Several local retail outlets get involved with the programme by hosting special events and providing a range of offers and promotions.

Visitors can check out some of the festival's offerings at the Kanyon, Neomarin and Palladium shopping malls, taking advantage of discounts from major brands such as Quiksilver, DKNY and Dolce & Gabbana.

There are also plenty of permanent attractions for travellers to discover during stays in hotels in Istanbul, such as Sultanahmet Mosque, Topkapi Palace and the Hagia Sophia basilica.
