There is a lot of intresting information that i would be sharing with you about this beautiful mosque.
Basilica Cistern
Basilica Cistern There is a very mysterious place in Sultanahmet, the heart of Istanbul: Basilica Cistern. The Cistern was also used as a venue in many movies and series. Did you watch Inferno, the movie starring Tom Hanks? It was shot in 2016, adopted by Dan Brown’s book. One of the main venues of that movie was Basilica. Basilica Cistern İstanbul or Basilica Palace is one of the most important structures in the history of Istanbul. The features of the columns inside, and the Medusa head, which is especially inverted, attract a lot of attention. There was a basilica where this cistern was built. For this reason, the cistern is called the Cisterna Basilica. Would you like to have some more detailed information about this place, please book our private guided tour to join me to discover...

Grand Bazaar Or Arasta Bazaar
Talking about Istanbul's Grand Bazaar is an attempt to realize those latent secrets scattered among the antique market's alleys, secrets that attract tens of thousands of visitors from all over the world every day. 'It is the heart, brain and soul of Istanbul', with these words, Nobel Prize-winner, poet Joseph Brodsky, described the Grand Bazaar in his book 'A Journey to Istanbul' as a city within a city built in the past.
Arasta Bazaar
• Thanks to its historical connection to the Blue Mosque, the Arasta Bazaar—locally known as the Arasta Carsisi—is centrally located in Sultanahmet. A lively open-air café serving tea, water pipes, and Turkish food is just next to the bazaar. In addition to myriad vendors selling various items and souvenirs worth hauling home, the bazaar houses the Great Palace Mosaic Museum, which contains ancient mosaics that have been unearthed all over Istanbul.
