Hagia Sophia
 
An amazing architectural sample of Byzantium Era that was built in 537! A former Christian church and one of the most precious gem of the World Heritage. In 1453 during the conquest of Istanbul by Fatih Sultan Mehmed, converted into a mosque. Mustafa Kemal Ataturk converted it into a museum in 1935. Hagia Sophia also called as “the eighth wonder of the world”...
 
Blue Mosque
 
This imposingly beautiful mosque took its name because of its amazing blue tiled interior! It was built between 1609-1616 for Sultan Ahmet, and it is one of the two mosques in Turkey with six minarets! Besides of being a tourist attraction, it is also an active mosque which closes its door five times a day
 
Hippodrome of Constantinople
 
The Hippodrome of Constantinople was a public entertainment space intended for horse and chariot racings while gaining at the same time institutional and political dimensions. Its capacity was estimated to reach 100,000 viewers, while the total length was about 450 meters! Currently an elongated public garden, with many remains of the Hippodrome to remind us its greatness…
 
Cafer Aga Medresseh
 
Built in 1560 as a school, designed by Sinan on the orders of Cafer Ağa right next to Hagia Sophia. Nowadays hosts a cultural organisation for teaching and promoting traditional Turkish handicraft!
