Voici le point de départ

Hippodrome
1

Hippodrome

Arrêt: 30 minutes ·Entrée incluseLes frais d'entrée sont inclus dans le forfait sans frais supplémentaires.
Hippodrome
  • The Hippodrome had been a center for sports and entertainment in the old Constantinople, the Eastern Roman Capital, and an important center for politics since sports and politics were closely knit in these times. No wonder that the Hippodrome had been a starting point for revolts and political movements throughout history.
  • Echoes of cries by slaves riding chariots in ferocious races and the inspirational words of intellectuals and poets that lit the flame of public movements have still been reminiscent of those with a powerful imagination.

Blue Mosque

Arrêt: 30 minutes ·Entrée incluseLes frais d'entrée sont inclus dans le forfait sans frais supplémentaires.
Blue Mosque

Sultan Ahmed Mosque, also known as Blue Mosque, arouses admiration with the delicate Ottoman tiles that decorate the shrine’s walls. The floral patterns of the tiles and the well lighted, spacious internal spaces are testimonials of the eternity of the Ottoman spirit.

Hagia Sophia Grand Mosque

Arrêt: 60 minutes ·Entrée incluseLes frais d'entrée sont inclus dans le forfait sans frais supplémentaires.
  • The Shrine of Holy Wisdom, a marvelous Byzantine basilica built in the 6th century, marks the golden age of Justinianus.
  • The domed construction of the sanctuary is an architectural innovation and was so richly and artistically decorated that Justinian proclaimed, "Solomon, I have outdone thee!". Humankind would have to wait for millennia before building a cathedral that would surpass the gigantic size of Hagia Sophia.
  • Converted to a mosque following the Ottoman conquest of the city, by the order of Sultan Mehmed the Conqueror in 1453, as the young Sultan fulfilled a divine premonition by the Holy Prophet Mohammad himself. In 1935 the building was converted to a museum by the executive order of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the founder of modern Turkey.
  • Hagia Sophia, whose status was converted to a mosque in July 2020, has been taking its visitors on a journey through the multi-layered texture of history as a mosque ever since.
4

Grand Bazaar

Arrêt: 2 hours ·Entrée incluseLes frais d'entrée sont inclus dans le forfait sans frais supplémentaires.
Grand Bazaar
  • The largest, oldest, and most attractive covered bazaar in the world, where people have been trading jewelry, carpets, food, perfumes, and even gossiping for centuries!
  • The tour also includes a short demonstration of Turkish rugs.
