About Istanbul

Istanbul sorge tra Europa e Asia sulle rive del Bosforo, con monumenti bizantini e ottomani, bazar affollati e traghetti tra due continenti.

La penisola storica racchiude i monumenti più grandi. Santa Sofia, la Moschea Blu e l'Ippodromo si fronteggiano a Sultanahmet, la Cisterna Basilica si trova sotto le strade e il Palazzo di Topkapı si estende sulla collina sopra il Corno d'Oro. A pochi passi, il Gran Bazar e il Bazar delle Spezie commerciano da secoli, e la Moschea di Solimano, opera del grande architetto ottomano Sinan, corona uno dei sette colli della città.

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