Know Before You Go

The tour includes visiting Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque and Suleymaniye Mosque.

Hagia Sophia: Imagine a building standing in the same place for 1500 years, the number one temple for two religions. The headquarters of Orthodox Christendom and the first mosque in Istanbul. It was constructed within only five years. It was the biggest dome, with 55.60 in height and 31.87 diameters for 800 years worldwide. Depictions of the religions side by side. Coronation place for the Roman Emperors. It was the meeting place of the Sultan and his people. That is the famous Hagia Sophia of Istanbul.

Blue Mosque: Located in the heart of the old city, it is the most famous mosque in Istanbul and Turkey. Known by the name Blue Mosque, the original name of the Mosque is Sultanahmet Mosque. The tiles design the Blue Mosque interior, which is named a Blue Mosque. These tiles come from the most famous tile-producing city in Turkey, Iznik. The tradition of naming mosques in the Ottoman Era is simple. The mosques are named after giving the mosque an order and spending money on construction. For this reason, the majority of the mosques carry the names of those people. Another tradition is that the region's name comes from the biggest mosque in that region. For this reason, there are three Sultanahmet. One is the mosque, one is the Sultan who ordered the mosque, and the third is the Sultanahmet area.

Suleymaniye Mosque: Suleymaniye Mosque is one of Istanbul, Turkey's most significant historical and architectural landmarks. Built during the reign of Sultan Suleyman the Magnificent, this stunning mosque is an impressive example of Ottoman architecture. It is widely considered one of the most impressive structures of its kind in the world.
