Byzantine & Ottoman Traces

Hagia Sophia

From the Golden Age of Byzantine, this once Christian church is one of the most extraordinary buildings in the history of architecture. It played a very important role in the Byzantine Empire and later as a mosque in the Ottoman Empire. The word "Haqia" in Greek means "Divine" and "Sophia" means "Wisdom". "Divine Wisdom is one of the attributes of Jesus Christ and this church is devoted to his divine wisdom.

 

Blue Mosque

The Blue Mosque is one of the most prominent landmarks of Istanbul. It is very impressive with its beautiful domes and semidomes, nice courtyards and six slender minarets.

Hippodrome and Obelisks

The square in front of the Blue Mosque covers the site of the ancient 'Hippodrome", one of the most famous areas in Byzantine.

 

Grand Covered Bazaar

The oldest and the largest covered market place in the world is situated in the center of the city.

Topkapi Palace

Topkapi Palace was more than just the private residence of the Sultan and his court, It was the seat of the supreme executive and judiciary council, the Divan and the training school. Dormitories, gardens, libraries, schools, even mosques were at the service of the court. Attached to the palace were diverse imperial societies of artists and craftsmen which produced some of the finest work in the whole empire.

Little Hagia Sophia Mosque

Little Hagia Sophia (Küçuk Ayasofya Camii), formerly the Church of the Saints Sergius and Bacchus, is a former Eastern Orthodox church dedicated to Saints Sergius and Bacchus in Constantinople, later converted into a mosque during the Ottoman Empire.
