Hagia Sophia as an architectural icon it is one of the must-see sights when in Istanbul. Get there early or buy an online museum pass to beat the queues.
La antigua iglesia de santa sofia o aya sofia es un lugar mut cautivador todo bien…
Hagia Sophia was our first visit. You get to use a different line with the pass. You avoid the crowd and it's much faster to get in. Also, note that entrance fees are waived for children below 12 years of age.
听了去过伊斯坦堡的朋友的建议，我和老公业参加了一日游。在黄金大市集里，见到玲珑满目的各式各样的店，感受到土耳其人的热情，也见识到他们的语言能力，几乎每个人都能说上几句中文，让人倍感亲切。
Hippodrome is close to The Blue Mosque & Hagia Sophia, so you can easily include in your trip. It contains the bronze Serpent Column (from about 480BC; originally from Delphi) Constantine Column (330 AD) & Ancient Egyptian obelisk (from Luxor) of Pharaoh Thutmosis III (about 3,500 years old).
Hagia Sophia fantastic old building currently undergoing major renovation work so many of the paintings etc undercover, good idea to buy the 72 hour museum pass as you can then. Jump the queue.
Hagia Sophia amazing place also, beautiful place and people are extremely friendly in this area, would definitely recommend
This is the way to see the sites of Istanbul. Istanbul is crowded and there are too many things to see in too little time, especially if you are coming from a cruise ship. We had contact via phone and e-mail.The service was friendly, professional and caring. Thank you so much! We hope to make use of your service again.
La ciudad mas linda ISTANBUL sin duda alguna
I loved the Blue mosque, with all the islamic calligraphy and very detailed artistic work all over. It is the only mosque with 6 minarets in Turkey or maybe just in Istanbul; not sure. It is always very crowded, some other mosques are less crowded and quite as beautiful. Fatih Camii is AMAZING especially at sunset.
