About Istanbul

Istanbul liegt am Bosporus in Europa und Asien: byzantinische und osmanische Bauten, lebhafte Basare und Fähren zwischen zwei Kontinenten.

Auf der historischen Halbinsel stehen die größten Sehenswürdigkeiten. Hagia Sophia, Blaue Moschee und Hippodrom liegen sich in Sultanahmet gegenüber, die Basilikazisterne erstreckt sich unter den Straßen, und der Topkapı-Palast breitet sich auf dem Hügel über dem Goldenen Horn aus. Wenige Schritte entfernt sind der Große Basar und der Gewürzbasar seit Jahrhunderten Handelsplätze, und die Süleymaniye-Moschee des großen osmanischen Baumeisters Sinan krönt einen der sieben Hügel der Stadt.
