stanbul's Best Walks
stanbul's Best...
Neighbourhoods
In stanbul, extraordinary experiences are found around every corner. Here, dervishes whirl, mezzins duel from minarets, and continents are crossed multiple times in a day. Home to millennia-old monuments and cutting-edge art galleries (sometimes in the same block), its a destination where eating, drinking and dancing are local priorities, and where everyone is welcome to join the party.
Aya Sofya ( )History resonates when you visit this majestic basilica. Built in the 6th century AD, its remarkable features include a massive dome and a stunning collection of Byzantine mosaic portraits.
Topkap Palace ( )A series of mad, sad and downright bad sultans lived in this pavilion-style palace during the glory days of the Ottoman Empire. Reminders of their privileged lifestyles are everywhere to be seen.
The Bosphorus ( )A ferry trip down the mighty Bosphorus strait showcases a passing parade of mosques, palaces and mansions on both the Asian and European shores.
Grand Bazaar ( )Sometimes described as the worlds oldest and most evocative shopping mall, this colourful and chaotic covered market is the heart of stanbuls Old City and one of its most atmospheric destinations.
Kariye Museum (Chora Church) ( )Great things come in small packages. This diminutive Byzantine church is made extraordinary by virtue of its interior, which is crammed with exquisite mosaics and frescoes.
stanbul Archaeology Museums ( )An eclectic collection of antiquities, classical sculpture, Ottoman tile work and Byzantine artefacts is showcased at this museum complex next to Topkap Palace.
Sleymaniye Mosque ( )Truly deserving of the tag living history, this imperial mosque atop the citys fourth hill is one of the few that has retained, restored and creatively reused its original outbuildings.
stiklal Caddesi ( )A promenade down this pedestrianised 19th-century boulevard is the quintessential stanbul experience, offering a colourful snapshot of local life.
stanbul Modern ( )stanbul has one of the most exciting contemporary art scenes in the world, and this gallery housed in a converted shipping warehouse on the Bosphorus is its pre-eminent venue.
