Itinerary Routes
- Sultanahmet is notable for housing the famous, mosaic-filled Hagia Sophia mosque, as well as the magnificent Ottoman-era Blue Mosque with its prominent minarets. Along with the Egyptian Obelisk of Theodosius and the nearby 4th-century Stone of Million pillar ruin, Sultanahmet Square contains a park, gardens, and fountains. Shops, hotels, and traditional eateries line the streets of this renowned region.
- As boats unload passengers at the ferry docks near the city’s bazaars, Eminönü buzzes with bustle. The Egyptian Bazaar, also known as the Spice Bazaar, is a colourful jumble of carpets, textiles, lamps, and jewellery, with kiosks full of fruit, teas, and spices, while the Grand Bazaar’s halls are a brilliant jumble of carpets, fabrics, lamps, and jewellery. The Süleymaniye Mosque dominates the region, while the Rustem Pasha Mosque, built in the 16th century, is known for its Iznik tiles.
- Karaköy is a buzzing harborside district where hipster cafes and late-night cocktail bars mingle with neighbourhood bakeries and family-run businesses. Young fashion designers’ studios and boutiques are housed in Ottoman-era structures splashed with street art, and there’s also a thriving modern art gallery scene. A mosque and therapeutic baths are part of the 16th-century Klç Ali Paşa complex.
- Galataport is a cruise ship port and mixed-use development in Istanbul’s Galata neighbourhood. It lies on the European side of the Bosporus strait, where it meets the Golden Horn.
- Dolmabahçe Palace was the major administrative centre of the Ottoman Empire from 1856 to 1887 and from 1909 to 1922 (Yldz Palace was used in the interim). It is located in the Beşiktaş district of Istanbul, Turkey, on the European coast of the Bosporus strait.
- The Istanbul Naval Museum is a national naval museum, located in the Beşiktaş district of Istanbul in Turkey. It was established in 1897 by the Ottoman Minister of Navy Bozcaadalı Hasan Hüsnü Pasha. The museum contains an important collection of military artefacts pertaining to the Ottoman Navy.
- The Beylerbeyi Palace, Beylerbeyi meaning “Lord of Lords”, is located in the Beylerbeyi neighbourhood of Üsküdar district in Istanbul, Turkey, at the Asian side of the Bosphorus. An Imperial Ottoman summer residence built between 1861–1865, it is now situated immediately north of the First Bosphorus Bridge.
- The Beşiktaş Bazaar is a popular Sunday market that is located in the Beşiktaş district. As you enter the market, myriad colours and friendly smiles will welcome you. It offers an astonishing range of goods that cover a wide span from tomatoes to exclusive jewellery.
- Fanning out from Taksim Square with its Republic Monument, Taksim is a busy nightlife, shopping, and dining area. Vintage trams shuttle along Istiklal Caddesi, the city’s main pedestrian boulevard, which is lined with 19th-century buildings housing international shopping chains, movie theatres, and cafes. The dense network of side streets is filled with bars, antique shops, and rooftop eateries with Bosphorus views.
- For long a district known only for its lighting shops and rather grimy traffic, but now rapidly being transformed, with some of the most handsome of the fin-de-siècle buildings and incredibly accessible thanks to the new metro station. Few know the origin of the name, the 6th (Şeş in old Turkish, now only used in backgammon) Office, in other words, the municipality headquarters of the 6th arrondissement, Istanbul’s first modern municipality.
- The Spice Bazaar in Istanbul, Turkey is one of the largest bazaars in the city. Located in the Eminönü quarter of the Fatih district, it is the most famous covered shopping complex after the Grand Bazaar.
- The end of the exciting journey.
