4. Come on a tour to the famous Topkapi Palace and skip the queues that flock to see this magnificent and historically significant site. Built in the middle of the 15th century, the walled complex comprised of the palace and its buildings dominate a small raised peninsula. The buildings are nestled within beautiful grounds that sweep down to the sea. For centuries, the palace was the political centre of the highly influential Ottoman Empire and although it is now purely a museum, as you visit its parts including courtyards, the Treasury, various pavilions, the holy relics and the weapons you will see how great it was.

About Istanbul

Istanbul s'étend sur l'Europe et l'Asie de part et d'autre du Bosphore : monuments byzantins et ottomans, bazars animés, ferries entre deux continents.

La péninsule historique concentre les plus grands monuments. Sainte-Sophie, la Mosquée bleue et l'Hippodrome se font face à Sultanahmet, la Citerne Basilique s'étend sous les rues, et le palais de Topkapı occupe la colline qui domine la Corne d'Or. À quelques pas, le Grand Bazar et le Bazar aux épices commercent depuis des siècles, et la mosquée Süleymaniye, œuvre du grand architecte ottoman Sinan, couronne l'une des sept collines de la ville.

Top-ranked sights in Istanbul: Dolmabahce Palace (Dolmabahce Sarayi), Bosphorus, Bosphorus Bridge (Bogazici Koprusu).
