Tours in Istanbul

Istanbul, has been the capital city of three empires and nowadays is the only city in the world to be located in two continents, Europe and Asia. Our first visit will be to the legendary Hagia Sophia, which was built 1,500 years ago as the first cathedral of the world. It was the biggest and last construction of The Roman Empire. Next we will visit the famous Blue Mosque, completed in 1616. After leaving the Blue Mosque we will explore the Hippodrome, the stadium of ancient Byzantium. We then travel about two kilometers to where you will have free time in one of the oldest shopping places in the world, the Grand Bazaar, which was built at the command of Fatih Sultan Mehmet. Within the Grand Bazaar can be found 4,399 shops, 497 stalls, 2,195 workshops and 17 fountains. Finally, we will visit the Topkapi Palace, which was built on the orders of Mehmet the Conqueror. Construction of the Palace began in 1461, it served as the administrative center of the Ottoman Empire

The Greek mythology associates the founding of the city with Orestes, son of king Agamemnon of Homer’s Iliad. The city was (re)founded in an eponymous way by the Roman Emperor Hadrian, hence the origin of its name today. Strategically located, Edirne has been in the middle of no less than 16 wars or sieges throughout its history, before it was conquered by the Ottoman Sultan Murad I in mid-thirteenth century.
