Istanbul Old City Tour Morning. This City founded around 660 BC; now recognized as Istanbul improved to become one of the most notable cities in the past. For almost sixteen centuries, it served as the capital of 4 empires. The Roman Empire (330–395). The Byzantine Empire (395–1204 / 1261–1453). Latin Empire (1204 –1261), and Ottoman Empire (1453–1922).[5] It was conducive in the rise of Christianity during Roman and Byzantine ages, before the Ottomans conquered the city in 1453. And transformed it into an Islamic haven.

    Tour Itinerary

    This wondrous charm is the fourth greatest church in the world and the biggest of its time. The word ‘‘Hagia’’ in Greek means ‘‘Divine’’ and Sophia means ‘‘Wisdom’’. Divine Wisdom is one of the characteristics of Jesus Christ, and this chapter is devoted to his spiritual wisdom.
    The Blue Mosque is unity of the most famous landmarks of Istanbul, facing the Hagia Sophia; it’s important for its blue Iznik tiles and unique six minarets. Truly an attraction not to missed when visiting Istanbul.
