Itinerary

  1. Hagia Sophia Mosque in Istanbul is a stunning blend of history, architecture, and spirituality. Visitors are greeted by its magnificent Byzantine dome, towering minarets, and intricate marble facades. Inside, you'll admire exquisite mosaics, massive calligraphic panels, and richly adorned arches. The central dome, with its ethereal light, creates a serene atmosphere. As a functioning mosque, you’ll witness the blend of past and present, with prayer areas and historical relics coexisting. Explore the remnants of Christian frescoes that highlight the building's history as a cathedral before its conversion. Non-Muslims can visit the second floor and from second floor's balcony they can see the first floor and prayers.

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).
