Yes, the nation is under a state of emergency.
Yes, you may go through a scanner -- and put the contents of your pockets and book bag in a conveyor belt, like you do for any U.S. federal building.
You certainly don't have to like to politics of Turkey's president.
But trust us, it is safe.
The risks are few, the rewards are many.
You may be headed to the ancient Spice Market.
When you see a colorful vendor.
Selling an array of Turkish flags.
Some featuring Mustafa Kemal Ataturk.
He was Turkey's first president.
He treasured democracy.
He championed women's rights.
