Itinerary
Dolmabahçe Palace was built by the thirty-first Ottoman sultan, Sultan Abdülmecid. Dolmabahçe Palace, designed with a Western understanding in accordance with the modernization goal of the Ottoman Empire, was opened for use on June 7, 1856. The construction of this magnificent palace, whose construction started on June 13, 1843, took 13 years.
Büyük Mecidiye Mosque or Ortaköy Mosque is a Neobaroque style mosque located on the coast in the Ortaköy district of Beşiktaş district, on the Bosphorus in Istanbul. The mosque was built by Sultan Abdülmecid in 1853 by architect Nigoğos Balyan of Armenian origin.
The Bosphorus Bridge, which connected the Asian and European continents by road for the first time, was completed in a short time of 39 months. One leg of the bridge is in Beylerbeyi and the other leg is in Ortaköy.
This 600 year old fortress, built by Fatih Sultan Mehmet, is a strategic structure, as it controls all points of entry into the Bosphorus.
Üsküdar Beylerbeyi Palace was planned as a summer resort for the Ottoman sultans and a state guest house where foreign heads of state or rulers would be hosted, and it was built upon the request of the sultan of the time, Sultan Abdülaziz (1861-1876).

About Istanbul
Istanbul straddles Europe and Asia across the Bosphorus, with Byzantine and Ottoman monuments, busy bazaars and ferries crossing between continents.
The historic peninsula holds the greatest landmarks. Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque and the Hippodrome face each other in Sultanahmet, the Basilica Cistern lies beneath the streets, and Topkapı Palace spreads across the hill above the Golden Horn. A short walk away, the Grand Bazaar and the Spice Bazaar have traded for centuries, and Süleymaniye Mosque, built by the great Ottoman architect Sinan, crowns one of the city's seven hills.
Top-ranked sights in Istanbul: Dolmabahce Palace (Dolmabahce Sarayi), Bosphorus, Bosphorus Bridge (Bogazici Koprusu).
