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).
