We have lunch with the dishes we prepare to get some energy before the old city tour.
Topkapi Palace Museum is the first stop on our tour. The palace was the home of the Ottoman Sultans and their families from the 15th to the 19th centuries. Today, it is home to an exquisite collection of crystal, silver, and Chinese porcelains. During our visit, you will have the chance to see all these collections, including the sultan's garments and Islamic holy relics. The Sultan Ahmet Imperial Mosque, which was built in the 16th century by the architect Mehmet, is one of the stops on the tour. It is also known as the "Blue Mosque" because of its magnificent interior decoration of blue Iznik tiles. The Hippodrome; the site of ancient chariot races, and the home of three ancient monuments; the Obelisk of Theodosius, the bronze Serpentine Column, and the Column of Constantine are on our places to visit list. When you reach the other end of the Hippodrome, the Hagia Sophia Mosque will meet you with all its grandeur. After the tour, you will be dropped back at the hotel. Overnight in Istanbul.
Please note: Topkapi Palace is closed on Tuesdays, the Bascilica Cistern can be an alternative. Please contact your consultant for both attractions' details. Remember to bring a headscarf when visiting religious sites such as the Blue Mosque and the Hagia Sophia Mosque.
