All about the trip
Tour the "Sultan Ahmet Center", the heart of the old city from where the Byzantine and Ottoman Empires were ruled.
Visit Hagia Sophia, the Church of the Divine Wisdom, one of the greatest marvels of architecture, constructed as a basilica in the 6th century by Emperor Justinian.
Move to Blue Mosque, facing Hagia Sophia, famous for its blue İznik tiles and 6 minarets, built in the name of Sultan Ahmet.
Continue to Hippodrome, the center of sportive events (chariot races, athletics) and political activities of the old city. Serpentine Column, Obelisk of Theodosius, and German Fountain of Wilhelm II are the monuments decorating the Hippodrome.
Explore a unique place for art lovers, a family-owned atelier producing handmade ceramics. Along with Hittite productions of terra cotta, quartz Seljuk productions, quartz İznik (Nicea)-Ottoman productions, this place also has various examples from the Turkish culture.
