You can learn about the local history of Istanbul when you make a stop at a well-known site like Taksim Square. Stroll along the area's seaside or experience its fascinating museums.
Once a church, then a Byzantine cathedral, later a mosque and now a monument, this iconic building is a national treasure.
The nickname of this 17th-century structure refers to the brilliant color of its tiled interior.
Find out about the history of Sultanahmet Square, one of the top monuments in Istanbul. Add the area's shops or stunning cathedral to your travel plans.
Enter the maze of shop-lined streets in one of the largest and oldest covered markets in the world to browse hundreds of thousands of hand-crafted objects.
Istanbul’s medieval lookout point offers panoramic views across city’s historic district and the water of the Golden Horn.
Extremely expensive
Very crowded with daily visitors.
Very good service, very kind people
Nice escape from the dirt and crowd of the big city. Motor vehicles are rare on the islands and transportation is achieved by traditional horse carriages (as of 2019). The air and sea feel cleaner. Pace is slower and island life is pleasant.
Biking is a bit hard because it’s uphill, but rather fun. I would recommend walking up to Aya Yorgi not only for its history but for the chance to enjoy a nice meal with a fantastic view.
