Højdepunkter

Descend beneath Istanbul to explore the Basilica Cistern, a fascinating underground world of marble columns, shimmering waters, and ancient legends. Built in the 6th century during the Byzantine era, this vast reservoir once supplied water to imperial palaces and public baths. Today, its hundreds of columns, reflected in the still water under soft lighting, create a unique and mysterious atmosphere. Enjoy fast-track entry with your guide and discover the stories behind Byzantine engineering, the cistern’s history, and the famous Medusa heads with their unusual placement and symbolism.

About Istanbul

Istanbul strækker sig over Europa og Asien ved Bosporus, med byzantinske og osmanniske monumenter, travle basarer og færger mellem kontinenterne.

Den historiske halvø rummer de største vartegn. Hagia Sophia, Den Blå Moské og Hippodromen vender mod hinanden i Sultanahmet, Basilikacisternen ligger under gaderne, og Topkapi-paladset breder sig over bakken over Det Gyldne Horn. En kort gåtur væk har Den Store Basar og Krydderibasaren handlet i århundreder, og Süleymaniye-moskeen, bygget af den store osmanniske arkitekt Sinan, kroner en af byens syv høje.

Top-ranked sights in Istanbul: Dolmabahce Palace (Dolmabahce Sarayi), Bosphorus, Bosphorus Bridge (Bogazici Koprusu).
