Estambul se extiende entre Europa y Asia a ambos lados del Bósforo, con monumentos bizantinos y otomanos, bazares animados y ferris entre continentes.

La península histórica reúne los mayores monumentos. Santa Sofía, la Mezquita Azul y el Hipódromo se miran en Sultanahmet, la Cisterna Basílica yace bajo las calles y el palacio de Topkapı se extiende por la colina sobre el Cuerno de Oro. A poca distancia, el Gran Bazar y el Bazar de las Especias comercian desde hace siglos, y la mezquita de Solimán, obra del gran arquitecto otomano Sinan, corona una de las siete colinas de la ciudad.
