Istanbul´a - to Istanbul -with names of people, places, etc. you need to use an apostrophe before a suffix

Otobüse-   -   to bus

aya      - to moon

havaya   - to sky

aðaçlara  - to trees

aþkýma    - to my love

aileme     -   to my family

arkadaþlarýmýza   -   to our friends

okula     - to school

markete     - to market

odaya     - to room

Mersin´e   -  to mersin

denize    -  to sea

yola    -  to road

bulutlara-    to clouds

babaya   -   to father

kýza    - to girl

masaya    -   to table

Just a couple of spelling corrections, but it looks great otherwise. Good job.

no - because the apostrophe is only used with names of people or places, proper nouns.  if you wanted to say to a particular market - like eg migros - then it would be ´migros´a´  (´a´ not ´e´ because of vowel harmony)
