Het Hippodroom was het sociale en sportieve centrum van het Byzantijnse Rijk, waar wagenrennen, feesten en openbare evenementen plaatsvonden. Tegenwoordig kunt u nog steeds historische monumenten zien, zoals de Egyptische Obelisk, de Slangenzuil en de Duitse Fontein.
De Blauwe Moskee, gebouwd in het begin van de 17e eeuw, is beroemd om zijn prachtige blauwe İznik-tegels, indrukwekkende koepel en zes minaretten. Het blijft een actieve moskee en is een van de meest iconische bezienswaardigheden van Istanbul. Dresscode : Bescheiden kleding is vereist. Vrouwen moeten hun haar, schouders en knieën bedekken. Mannen moeten kleding tot onder de knieën dragen. Sjaals zijn beschikbaar bij de ingang indien nodig. Kinderen onder de 12 jaar hebben geen strikte dresscode.
Gebouwd in 537 AD door keizer Justinianus I, Hagia Sophia diende als een kerk, een moskee, een museum, en vandaag de dag is opnieuw een moskee. Beroemd om zijn massieve koepel en unieke mix van Byzantijnse en Ottomaanse architectuur, is het een van de belangrijkste bezienswaardigheden in Istanbul en een symbool van de rijke geschiedenis van de stad. Dresscode : Bescheiden kleding is vereist. Vrouwen moeten hun haar, schouders en knieën bedekken. Mannen moeten kleding tot onder de knieën dragen. Sjaals zijn beschikbaar bij de ingang indien nodig. Kinderen onder de 12 jaar hebben geen strikte dresscode.
Het Topkapipaleis was bijna 400 jaar lang de thuisbasis van de Ottomaanse sultans en was het politieke en administratieve hart van het Ottomaanse Rijk. Het biedt prachtige binnenplaatsen, keizerlijke schatten, heilige relikwieën en een adembenemend uitzicht op de Bosporus en de Gouden Hoorn.
Gebouwd in de 6e eeuw tijdens het bewind van keizer Justinianus I, de Basilica Cisterne is het grootste oude ondergrondse waterreservoir in Istanbul. Beroemd om zijn sfeervolle verlichting, marmeren zuilen en mysterieuze Medusa-hoofden, is het een van de meest fascinerende Byzantijnse bezienswaardigheden van de stad.
Een van de oudste en grootste overdekte markten ter wereld, de Grand Bazaar dateert uit de 15e eeuw. Met duizenden winkels verspreid over tientallen straten. Voordat u de Grote Bazaar binnengaat, kan uw Gids vertrouwde lokale winkels aanbevelen voor Turkse tapijten, keramiek, sieraden, lederwaren en kruiden. Dit kan u helpen meer te weten te komen over traditioneel vakmanschap, kwaliteit te vergelijken en te genieten van een comfortabelere winkelen. Daarna heeft u vrije tijd om de Grote Bazaar op eigen gelegenheid te verkennen.
