Rute

1. Upon arrival in Sanlıurfa, you will be met by your tour guide at the airport holding a name sign with your name on it. You will be transferred to the Gobeklitepe Archeological site with a private van.

History Gobeklitepe dates back to the early period of mankind ( about 12,000 BC – 9000 BC ), even earlier than Stonehenge. The discovery of the oval-shaped temples in 1996 by German archeologists created a new perspective in the history of humans with God. Today you will visit the Oldest Temple of the world and the site of ongoing archeological excavations, then we will drive to the Archeology Museum and Mosaic Museum where the relics are displayed.

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).
