• Hagia Sophia Mosque - Our first stop will be Hagia Sophia Mosque, one of the most renowned and frequently visited landmarks in Istanbul. Originally a church and later a museum, Hagia Sophia is celebrated as one of the world’s greatest architectural achievements and is often referred to as the 8th wonder of the world. Initially constructed as a church in 325, it was rebuilt in 537 and converted into a mosque by Fatih Sultan Mehmet following the conquest of Istanbul in 1453. It served as a museum from 1935 until a decree on July 10, 2020, officially reinstated its status as a mosque.
• Blue Mosque - This stunning structure is arguably the most photographed site in Istanbul and one of the city’s most iconic buildings. The Sultan Ahmet Mosque, built in the early 17th century, was a bold statement of Ottoman power. It is renowned for its breathtaking blue interior, adorned with over 20,000 handmade Iznik ceramic tiles in more than 50 different designs, becoming more elaborate from the lower levels to the galleries. The sultan, in collaboration with architect Sedefhar Mehmet Aga, commissioned six minarets for the mosque, a controversial choice as the only other mosque with six minarets was in Mecca. The mosque’s multiple domes create a spectacular visual effect both inside and out: cascading from the exterior and drawing the eye upward toward the center from the interior, giving a sense of ascent toward the heavens.
• Hippodrome - The Hippodrome of Constantinople was a public arena primarily used for chariot races and also hosted gladiatorial games, official ceremonies, celebrations, protests, and the punishment of convicts. It was active during the Roman (203-330 CE), Byzantine (330-1453 CE), and Ottoman (1453-1922) periods.
• Little Hagia Sophia - Little Hagia Sophia, originally a Greek Orthodox church during the Byzantine era, now serves as a mosque. Initially named “The Church of Saints Sergius and Bacchus,” it was dedicated to two young saints: St. Sergius and St. Bacchus. Built in 536 CE by Justinian I, the architecture of Little Hagia Sophia is distinctive and unlike that of Hagia Sophia. The structure features an octagonal nave within an irregular rectangle, topped by a 17-meter diameter umbrella dome. The church was converted into a mosque in 1513, sixty years after the conquest of Constantinople. Today, it functions as a mosque and is open to visitors daily, except during prayer times.
