5. Hagia Sophia Museum / Ayasofya / Santa Sofia Built in the 6th century by Emperor Justinian, played a very important role in the Christian and Islamic World. After the Ottoman conquest the bells, altar, iconoclastic, and sacrificial vessels were removed, and many of the mosaics were eventually plastered over to convert the church into a mosque then a museum and now it’s a mosque for the second time. The most important stop of an Istanbul tour is operated in Old City Istanbul / Constantinople. *Please note that as it's not a museum anymore, tour guides don't have skip-the-line priority there. You may need to wait in the security line, in order to avoid queues we suggest departing at 8:30am or 9:00am

About Istanbul

Istanbul strekker seg over Europa og Asia ved Bosporos, med bysantinske og osmanske monumenter, travle basarer og ferger mellom kontinentene.

Den historiske halvøya rommer de største landemerkene. Hagia Sofia, Den blå moské og Hippodromen vender mot hverandre i Sultanahmet, Basilikacisternen ligger under gatene, og Topkapi-palasset brer seg over høyden over Gullhornet. En kort spasertur unna har Den store basar og Kryddermarkedet handlet i århundrer, og Süleymaniye-moskeen, bygget av den store osmanske arkitekten Sinan, kroner en av byens sju åser.

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