Program of The Day

Get to know the unique creations of Byzantine architects. We will visit the Hippodrome during our tour - it was the center of life in Byzantium, where residents gathered for various purposes for 1000 years!

The Constantinople Hippodrome

The Constantinople Hippodrome was once one of the most magnificent structures in the city. The construction start time is considered to be 203. Today there are not many reminders of the Circus Maximus. Among them are the Serpent Column, the obelisks of Theodosius and Egyptian, as well as the vast square itself, called the Hippodrome (today - Sultanahmet Square)

Next, we will enter one of the largest religious complexes in Istanbul-the Blue Mosque, consisting of 6 minarets. It was built in honor of Ahmed Sultan back in the 19th century and was the main pilgrimage point. Of course, such a unique creation of Byzantine architects as the Hagia Sophia - a world-famous cultural monument-will not remain without attention.

Hagia Sophia is the main attraction of the former Constantinople. Entering the main hall, one cannot but admire the genius of the architects.Hagia Sophia has a younger, or rather, an older sister - the Byzantine Church of Sergius and Bacchus, which the Turks call Little Hagia Sophia.

We will then go to the most colorful closed market - the Grand Bazaar-consisting of more than 4,000 shops. You can find products for every taste - antiques, jewelry, gold, carpets, leather goods, and souvenirs are selling here.

The Grand Bazaar is a couple of streets with thousands of shops that sell perhaps everything that you can buy in Istanbul. You will be invited to see the item, and they will try to sell it to you no matter what, haha, but we loved the experience!

We had an enjoyable guide who answered all the numerous questions of our children. Hagia Sophia and Suleymanie are mandatory for everyone who has ever been to Istanbul.

The tour is ideal for those who are in this city for the first time. An exciting cultural program on the main cultural assets. I managed to take a lot of photos to remember this trip.

The company provided an excellent guide. He shared information about cathedrals and mosques and the history of the country, the geographical region, and various religions. It was entertaining to listen to him.

As soon as you enter the Suleymaniye Mosque, internal changes are immediately felt. Impressive. Everyone should visit this place! I always try to visit mosques first in every city, but this particular one is something completely different.
