           Galata Kulesi dünyanın en eski kulelerinden birisidir. Bizans İmparatoru Anastasius tarafından 528 yılında fener kulesi olarak yaptırılmıştır.
          
                    &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           1204 yılındaki Haçlı Seferleri sırasında hasar gören ve neredeyse tamamen yıkılan kule, 1348 yılında Cenevizliler tarafından onarılmıştır. Galata Kulesi’ni yeniden ayağa kaldıran Cenevizliler kuleye “İsa Kulesi” ismini koydular.
          
                    &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           Galata, tarihi boyunca birçok farklı şekilde kullanılmıştır. 16. yüzyılda savaş esirlerinin barınağı, Sultan III. Murat döneminde rasathane, 1717’den itibaren de yangın kulesi olarak kullanılmıştır.
          
                    &#xD;

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           Galata Kulesi tarihi boyunca pek çok kez hasar görmüş ve yeniden onarılmııştır. III. Selim döneminde çıkan bir yangında kulenin büyük bölümü yanmış. 1831 yılında başka bir yangında yine hasar görmüş ve yeniden onarılmış. 1875 yılında bir fırtına nedeniyle kulenin külahı devrilmiştir. Kuleyi bugünkü görünümüne kavuşturan onarım ise 1967’de tamamlanmıştır.

           1445-1446 yılları arasında ek destekler ile yükseltilen kule İstanbul’un en yüksek yapısıydı. Yüksekliği yerden çatının en uç kısmına kadar 69.90 metredir.

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           Yapılan statik hesaplamalara göre 10.000 ton olan kule, sade tasarıma rağmen çok ihtişamlı.

           İstanbul’un simgesi olan Galata Kulesi; hayal gücünün eseri ve tarihi belgelerle kanıtlanmış pek çok efsaneye ev sahipliği yapıyor. Haydi bu efsanelerden bazılarına bakalım.
          
                    &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           İstanbul’a ilk kez gelen Cenevizli denizcilere, beyaz bir martının karanlıkta yol gösterdiği anlatılır. Cenevizliler bu martıyı Hz İsa ile özdeşleştirmişlerdir. Bir gün onu yuvasına kadar takip ettikten sonra yakalar, pişir ve yerler. Yuvasının bulunduğu yere de onun hatırası için Galata Kulesi’ni inşa ederler.
          
                    &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           Bir başka efsaneye göre; Galata Kulesi’ne birlikte çıktığın kişiyle evlenirsin derler. Bu efsane, Roma döneminden kalma. Bu inanca göre; Galata Kulesi’ne ilk kez beraberce çıkan bir çift, mutlaka evlenirmiş. Eğer taraflardan birisi, daha önceden kuleye çıkmışsa bu tılsım bozulur.
          
                    &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           Bir başka efsanede ise Galata Kulesi ile Kız Kulesi birbirine aşıktır ama aralarında bulunan İstanbul Boğazı, sevgililerin kavuşmasını engeller. Galata Kulesi aşkını mektuplara yazar yıllarca ve Kız Kulesi’ne olan hasretini kelimelere döker. Hezarfen Ahmet Çelebi, uçmak için kuleye çıktığında, Galata Kulesi onun kulağına Kız Kulesi’ne olan aşkını fısıldar ve mektupları ona verir. Rüzgarı arkasına alan Hezarfen, mektupları Kız Kulesi’ne ulaştırır. Böylece Kız Kulesi aşkının tek taraflı olmadığını anlar. Bu iki aşık, İstanbul’un en güzel manzarasını oluşturur.

           Yüzyıllar sonra şehrin adı Konstantinopolis oldu ve Boğaz’ın üzerindeki bu kayalıklara ilk kule dikildi. Tarihçilere göre ilk kuleyi yaptıran kişi, İmparator Manuel Komnenos’tur (1143 – 1180).

           İmparator Manuel bu kuleyi şu amaç için yaptırır: İstanbul Boğazı’nı denetim altına almak. Hatta kule ile Avrupa sahili arasına kalın bir zincirin çekildiği biliniyor.

           Fatih Sultan Mehmet’in emri ile burada bir kule yapıldı. Bu kulenin ne amaçla yapıldığı tam olarak belli değil. 1509 yılında gerçekleşen İstanbul depreminde zarar gören kule, dönemin meşhur mimarı Hayrettin tarafından onarıldı.

           Yaklaşık 200 yıl sonra bu kule fener olarak kullanılmaya başlandı. Bu sefer de kandil yağı sebebiyle kule tutuştu ve yandı.

Abdülhamit, Kız Kulesi’nde dalga seslerini dinleyerek istirahat edermiş. 1. Mahmut ise rüşvet aldığı iddia edilen bir saray görevlisini Kız Kulesi’nde idam ettirmiştir.

           Bir gece, Hero’nun sevgilisine yol göstermesi için yaktığı fener söner. Karanlıkta yolunu kaybeden Leandros Boğaz’un sularında boğularak ölür. Efsaneye göre bu ölüme şahit olan Rahibe Hero, yaşadığı acıya dayanamaz ve kendini sulara bırakarak intihar eder.

Bunun üzerine pek çok farklı yerden kuleye hediyeler yollanır, bunların arasında da bir sepet üzüm vardır. Üzüm sepetinin içinde saklanan yılan, o gece genç kızı zehirleyerek ölümüne neden olur.

           1500 yıldan fazla bir zamandır ticaretin merkezi olarak görülmüştür burası. Modern zamanda alışveriş merkezlerinin sayısının artmasına rağmen halen bu ticari önemini korumaktadır. İstanbul Boğazı, Marmara Denizi ve Haliç’in birleştiği bir nokta olması bu önemi korumasının en büyük nedenlerindendir.

           Eminönü denince akla ilk gelen yerlerden birisidir Mısır Çarşısı. Çarşı, nostaljik atmosferi ile dikkat çeker. Çok çeşitli çiçek tohumları, baharatlar, bitki kökleri gibi bir çok ürün satılır. Tüm bu ürünlerin kokuları birbirine karışır ve çok farklı bir dünya yaratır.

           Çarşıda; hediyelik eşya dükkânları, baharatçılar ve kuyumcular bulunuyor. Buranın Mısır’dan alınan vergilerle yaptırıldığı düşünülmektedir. Bu yüzden ismi de Mısır Çarşısı’dır. Çarşının eski ismi Valide Çarşısı’dır.

           İstanbul’un en özel mekanlarından biri olan Yerebatan Sarnıcı Bizans döneminde inşa edildi. İmparator I. Justinianus (527-565) tarafından, Büyük Saray’ın ve bölgenin su ihtiyacını karşılamak amacıyla yaptırılmıştır.

           Yapılan bu sarnıcın suyu, Belgrad Ormanı’ndan su kemerleri yardımı ile getirilmiştir.

           Bu destek taşlarının nereden buraya getirildikleri hala bilinmiyor. Bu bilinmezlik Medusa Başları hakkında bir çok efsane üretilmesine neden olmuştur.

           Efsanelerden birisine göre Medusa, siyah gözleri ve uzun saçları ile antik çağın en güzel kadınlarından biridir. Zeus’un oğlu olan Perseus ile sevgili olan Medusa, Athena tarafından lanetlenmiş.

           Sarnıcın sütunları arasında bir sütun oyma ve kabartmaları ile diğerlerinden farklıdır. Önceleri, üzerinde gözyaşı şeklinde desenler bulunan bu sütunun sarnıcın inşaasında ölen köleleri temsil ettiğine inanılıyor.

           Sütunun ortasında bir delik bulunuyor. Bu deliğe parmağını sokanların dilek ve isteklerinin gerçekleşeceğine inanılıyor. Bu yüzden buraya Dilek Sütunu da denmektedir.

      <title>Balat Turu 2: Balat Mahallesi</title>
      <link>https://www.legacyottomanhotel.com/balat-turu-2-balat-mahallesi</link>
      <description>Fener semtinden sonra Balat semti başlıyor. Balat İstanbul’un en çok ilgi çeken mahallelerinden biridir. Burası eski bir Yahudi mahallesidir. Önceleri burada Yahudiler yaşıyordu.

Balat isminin; Rum dilinde saray anlamına gelen “palation” kelimesinden türediği düşünülmektedir.

15. yüzyılda, İspanya’daki engizisyon mahkemelerinden kaçarak İstanbul’a gelen Sefarad Yahudileri buraya yerleştiler. İstanbul’a Sultan 2. Beyazıt’ın daveti ile gelmişlerdi.

Balat’ta Yahudiler, Fener’de Rumlar ve Ayvansaray’da Müslümanlar huzur içinde uzun yıllarca yaşadılar. Buradaki Yahudi topluluklar 1950’lerde başlayan İsrail göçü nedeni ile mahallelerini terkettiler.

Balat’ı gezerken mutlaka görmeniz gereken yapılar var. Bu listede o mekanları bulacaksınız.</description>

Ama Maria, Hülagü Han’ın ölümü üzerine onun oğlu Abakan Han ile evlenmiş. Abaka Han din değiştirerek Hristiyan olmuş. Abakan’ın da ölümü üzerine Maria İstanbul’a geri yollanmış. Maria İstanbul’a döndüğünde şu anki kilisenin yakınında bir kadınlar manastırı yaptımış.

           Denize kıyısı olan şehirlerimizde balıkçıları sıkça görmekteyiz. Bu durum Osmanlı zamanında da balığın kolayca tedarik edilmesinden kaynaklı olarak aynıydı. Osmanlı zamanında balık çeşitli yağlarla pişirildi. Tarak, istiridye ve midye pilavı, kefal balığı çorbası gibi lezzetler bulunurdu. Balık pişiricileri aynı zamanda sokak sokak gezerek çiğ balık da satarlardı.

           Günümüzde sadece ciğer özelinde yoğunlaşan birçok mekânı ve tezgahtarı görmek mümkün. Osmanlı zamanında ciğer uzun bir sırığa sabitlenirdi. İsteğe göre hafifçe una bulanır ve kızartılırdı. Daha sonrasında maydanoz ve soğan ile servis edilirdi.

           Türkiye’nin birçok noktasında birbirinden güzel simitleri bulmak mümkündür. Osmanlı zamanında da simitçiler ve simit halk için önemli bir yere sahipti. Tarih kaynaklar simit isminin Smiti yani İzmit’ten geldiğini düşünmektedir. Bunun sebebi ise şuna bağlanmaktadır: İstanbul’dan doğuya yolculuk eden veya İstanbul’a gelen kişilerin İzmit’te konakladıkları biliniyordu. Kervanlar yanlarına hızlı hazırlanabilen simidi alıyorlardı. Osmanlı zamanında simitçiler ya sabit bir yerde duruyor ya da sokak sokak geziyorlardı.

           İstanbul’un önemli sokak lezzetlerinden bir tanesi olan pilav Osmanlı zamanından gelen bir gelenektir. Sadece o zaman daha farklı bir şekilde hazırlanıyordu. Kelle suyuyla pişirilen pilavın tepsisini yine kelleler süslerdi. Bu zamanda pilav nohutlu pilav olarak da sunuluyordu. Pilavcılar aynı zamanda pilava ek olarak sabahları hamallara kuskus satarlardı.

           Osmanlı’da tatlı kültürünün yeri büyüktür. Bunu saray mutfağına baktığımızda anlayabiliriz. Saray mutfağında helvacıbaşı ve tatlıcıbaşı olmak üzere iki ayrı kolu görmek mümkündür. Halka baktığımızda da durum aynı şekildeydi. Kurabiye, şam tatlıları, şekerler, helvalar, muhallebiler çok sevilirdi. Seyyar satıcılar tatlılarını porselen kaplarda sunarlardı. Sattığı yerde kabını bırakan tatlıcı, kabını ertesi gün gelip alırdı.

&lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
&lt;div data-rss-type="text"&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Fodula, Osmanlı mutfağının ilginç ama özel lezzetlerinden biridir. Bu farklı yemeğin en mühim özelliği dana eti ve çavdar ekmeği ile yapılıyor olmasıdır. Çavdar ekmeği sadece üzeri kesilerek ve içi alınarak hazırlanır. Dana eti sebzelerle birlikte pişirilir ve ekmeğin içerisine yerleştirilir. Son olarak tereyağı ile süslen ekmek fırına sürülür ve piştikten sonra afiyetle tüketilir…
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;

&lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
&lt;div data-rss-type="text"&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Bu farklı yemeğin ismi her ne kadar kulağa garip gelse de lezzeti tartışmasızdır! Kavun dolmasının malzemeleri arasında kavun, dana eti, pirinç, badem, baharatlar, kuş üzümü ve Antep fıstığı bulunur. Kavun dolmasının hazırlanması için öncelikle kavunun üst kısmı şapka şeklinde kesilir ve çekirdekleri alınır. Ardından kuzu eti kısık ateşte pişirilir ve diğer malzemelerle özel bir karışım hazırlanır. Son olarak hazırlanan karışım kavunun içerisine doldurulur ve kavun fırına verilir.

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Osmanlı mutfağına ait en farklı yemeklerden biri olan akike koyun eti, kuyruk yağı, yoğurt, tarçın ve çeşitli baharatların damla sakızı ile birlikte bir güvecin içerisinde pişirilmesi ile hazırlanır. Bu ilginç karışım sarayın en sevilen ve beğenilen lezzetlerinden biriydi.

           Günümüzde en bilinen Karadeniz lezzetleri arasında bulunan mıhlama, aslında Osmanlı saray mutfağının vazgeçilmez yemeklerinden biriydi. Karadeniz mutfağında peynir, tereyağı ve mısır unu ile yapılan bu yemek, Osmanlı mutfağında kıyma, yumurta ve çeşitli baharatlar ile hazırlanırdı.

           Bugün de çok sevilen lezzetler arasında yer alan beyrani çorbası, özünde gerçek bir Osmanlı lezzetidir. Kuzu etinin çeşitli baharatlar ile zenginleştirilip kısık ateşte pişirilmesi ile hazırlanan bu özel çorbanın aynı zamanda besin değeri de yüksektir. Osmanlı mutfağının sevilen lezzeti beyraniyi, en lezzetli haliyle deneyimleyemek için Antep’i ziyaret etmenizi tavsiye ederiz.

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Adı bile bir hayli farklı olan bu yemek dana, kuzu ve tavuk etinin kıyma haline getirilip karıştırılması; ardından da fıstık, yumurta ve çeşitli baharatlarla yoğurulması ile hazırlanırdı. Karışım hazırlandıktan sonra bir süre dinlendirilir, elde açılan ince bir yufkanın içerisine eklenir, dürüm şeklinde sarılırdı. Sonra dürüm birer lokma olacak şekilde kesilir ve pişirilirdi.

&lt;div data-rss-type="text"&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Osmanlı mutfağının ilginç tatlarından biri olan mutancana kuzu eti, arpacık soğan, iç badem, kırmızı üzüm, bal, kayısı, erik, kuru incir ile hazırlanırdı. Oldukça farklı malzemelerden oluşan bu yemeğin püf noktası ise et ve kuru meyvelerin ayrı ayrı pişirip en son karıştırılmasıydı.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;

&lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
&lt;div data-rss-type="text"&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           İsmi Rusçadan lezzeti ise Osmanlı mutfağından gelen bu farklı yemek aslında bir çeşit mantı olarak tanımlanabilir. Ancak piruhide klasik mantının aksine et değil tulum peyniri ve maydanoz kullanılıyor. Ayrıca üzerine yoğurtlu bir sos dökülüyor ve sonuçta ortaya sultanlara layık özel mi özel bir lezzet çıkıyor…

           Yufkanın beyaz peynir, kıyılmış et veya sebze ile doldurulması ile hazırlanan burek; yani börek eski Osmanlı mutfağında da günümüzde olduğu kadar yaygındı. İşte çok sevdiğimiz bu lezzetin anavatanı Balkan mutfağı! Leziz Balkan yoğurdu ile başka bir tada dönüşen burek, hem bizim hem de Balkan sofralarının vazgeçilmez lezzetlerinden sadece bir tanesi.

Pirinç, kıyma, sebze ile doldurulan dolmalık biberler, Balkan mutfağında tencerede değil fırında pişiriliyor. Bizler genelde tencerede pişirsek de bu muhteşem lezzet sofralarımızın en yaygın lezzetlerinden!

           Sofralarımızın sevilen lezzeti kuru fasulye, Balkan mutfağında da son derece yaygın bir yemek. Ama elbette bazı farklılıklar söz konusu. Kuru fasulye Balkanlarda genelde tavada yapılıyor ve bizdekine göre daha kuru oluyor. Fasulyeler daha diri bırakılıyor ve minimum salça ile hazırlanıyor. Elbette onun da tadı en az bizdeki kadar güzel!

           Balkan mutfağından çıkan muhteşem sos, ülkemizde de son derece rağbet görüyor. Genelde patlıcan, kırmızıbiber ve sarımsak ile hazırlanan ajvar, aslen bir Yugoslav lezzeti. Günümüzde hem bizim sofralarımızda hem de Balkan sofralarında halen çok yapılan bu sos genelde sonbahar aylarında hazırlanıyor ve kış boyunca afiyetle tüketiliyor.

           Balkan mutfağından sofralarımıza gelen vazgeçilmez tatlardan birisi de hiç şüphesiz Elbasan Tava’dır. Haşlanmış kuzu etinin yumurta, sarımsak ve yoğurtlu sosla fırına verilmesi ile hazırlanan Arnavut kökenli bu yemek, ismini Arnavutluk’un Elbasan şehrinden alıyor. Bu leziz yemeğin en güzel halinin kendi yerinde yapıldığı iddia ediliyor; sebebi ise bölgede yetişen hayvanların çok sağlıklı beslenmeleri ve etlerinin kekik kokması olarak gösteriliyor.

           Ülkemizde papara olarak bilinen popara, Balkanların en basit ama lezzetli yemeklerinden birisi. Popara’nın hazırlanışı için yağda kızdırışmış toz biberin içine lokmalara ayrılmış ekmekler ve parçalanmış peynirler atılıyor. Kulağa bir hayli garip gelse de lezzeti tartışmasız.

Dönemin ünlü mimarı Alexandre Vallaury tarafından Çinili Köşk’ün karşısına İstanbul Arkeoloji Müzeleri klasik binası inşa edildi. Bu bina 13 Haziran 1891’de ziyarete açıldı.

           Ahmed Kemaleddin 1870 yılında İstanbul Kadıköy’de doğdu.

           Topkapı Sarayı Osmanlı’da idari vasfıyla büyük önem taşımıştır. Çünkü sarayda uzun yıllar boyunca sultanlar ikamet etmiş, devlet yönetilmiş ve bir eğitim merkezi olarak kullanılmıştır.
          
                    &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           Fatih Sultan Mehmed fetihten sonra İstanbul’u başkent ilan etmiştir. 1460- 1478 yılları arasında Topkapı Sarayı’nı yaptırarak buraya yerleşmiştir
          
                    &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;

           Saraya sonraki zamanlarda bazı ilaveler yapılmıştır. Sultanlar 1850 yılına kadar burada ikamet etmiştir fakat daha sonra merasimler ve devlet protokolü için yetersiz kaldığı düşünülerek Dolmabahçe Sarayı’na taşınılmıştır. Fakat arşivler, saltanat hazinesi, mukaddes emanetler burada muhafaza edilmiş ve devlet törenleri yapılmaya devam edilmiştir.

           Topkapı Sarayı’nın mimari planı belirlenirken saray- tebaa ve Osmanlı devlet felsefesi büyük rol oynamıştır. Ayrıca sarayın mimarisinde Fatih Sultan Mehmed’in babası Sultan II. Murad’ın Tunca Nehri kenarında yaptırdığı Edirne Sarayı da esin kaynağı olmuştur.

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           Topkapı Sarayı genel olarak sarayda yaşayan görevlilere mahsus işlerine ayrılan binalar, hükümdarın ikametgahı ve devlet işlerine ayrılan dairelerden oluşmaktadır. Yapı Bizans akropolü üzerine inşa edilmiştir. Topkapı Sarayı’nın çevresi 1400 metre uzunluğunda olan ve ”Sur-ı Sultani” adı verilen karadan ihtiva duvarları ile, deniz tarafından ise Bizans surlarıyla çevrelenmiştir.

  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           Saray 700.000 metrekare alanın üzerinde bulunmaktadır. 700.000 metrekarenin büyük bir bölümü Hasbahçe’ye aittir. Saray iki teşkilattan oluşur. Bunlardan biri Birun diğeri Enderun’dur. Saray’ın mekanları, merasimleri ve oturum planı bu teşkilat doğrultusunda düzenlenmiştir.
          
                    &#xD;

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           Topkapı Sarayı genel olarak bahçe, hasbahçe, harem, dört avlu ve üç ana kapıdan oluşur. Topkapı Sarayı için mütevazı demek doğru olacaktır. Çünkü büyük harcamalar köprüler, camiler, kışlalar, kervansaraylar ve konaklama tesisleri için kullanılmıştır.
          
                    &#xD;

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           Osmanlı’nın büyük mimarı Mimar Sinan Topkapı Sarayı’nda sadece bir bölümü inşa etmiştir. Sarayın inşasında Mimar Sinan, Fatih Sultan Mehmet, Acem Ali, Davud Ağa ve Sarkis Balyan gibi isimlerin katkısı olmuştur.

           Topkapı Sarayı’nın resmi olarak müzeye çevrilmesini Mustafa Kemal Atatürk sağlamıştır. Fakat müze işlevi Sultan Abdülmecid zamanına; 1839- 1861 yılları arasına dayanmaktadır. O dönemde eski eserleri devlet büyüklerine ve yabancı kişilere göstermek zamanla bir gelenek halini almıştır. Daha sonrasında Sultan Abdülaziz ampir üslupta camekanlı vitrinler yaptırarak eski eserler yabancılara gösterilmeye başlanır.

      <description>Türk hamamları İstanbul’un en çok ziyaret edilen tarihi yapılarındandır. Osmanlı döneminden kalma bir çok tarihi hamam bugün hala ayakta ve hizmet vermekte.

Türk kültürüne ait olan hamamlar; temizlik, yıkanma ve hatta hastalıklardan kurtulma yeri olarak kullanılırdı. İmparatorluğun başkenti olan İstanbul’da da çok sayıda hamam vardı. Osmanlı’nın büyük mimarları da ustalık eserleri olarak hamamlar inşa etmişlerdi. Bu yapıların dış görünüşleri insanı büyülediği gibi iç tasarımları da oldukça güzeldir.</description>

Osmanlı’nın büyük mimarları da ustalık eserleri olarak hamamlar inşa etmişlerdi. Bu yapıların dış görünüşleri insanı büyülediği gibi iç tasarımları da oldukça güzeldir.

           Cağaloğlu Hamamı mimarisi barok stilindedir. Klasik Osmanlı hamamlarında olduğu ayıran özelliği ise soğuk ve sıcak bölümleri diğer hamamlara göre farklı olması. Üç yüzyıldır ayakta olan hamamda kadınlar ve erkekler için ayrı bölümler bulunuyor. İstanbul’un tarihi dokusunu hissetmek istiyorsanız kesinlikle burayı ziyaret etmelisiniz.

Anlatılana göre, Sultan İkinci Beyazıt, şu anki Galatasaray Lisesi ve Galatasaray Hamamı’nın bulunduğu arsada gezinirken Gül Baba isimli birisi ile karşılaşır. Bu kişi padişahtan bulundukları alana yüzyıllara hükmedecek büyük bir mektep ve büyük kubbeli hamamı olan bir külliye yapmasını talep ediyor. Padişah, bu isteği kabul ederek 1481 yılında inşaatı başlatıyor. Gül Baba’nın mezarı bugün bu külliyenin içindedir.

           1556 yılında yapılan Ayasofya Hürrem Sultan Hamamı, Kanuni Sultan Süleyman’ın eşi Hürrem Sultan tarafından yaptırıldı. Mimar Sinan, kadın ve erkek bölümünü ilk kez aynı eksen üzerinde inşa ederek, Türk hamam mimarisinde bir ilke imza atmıştır. Hürrem Sultan’ın hayrat olarak yaptırdığı hamam, uzun yıllar depo olarak kullanılıyordu. 2011 yılında yeniden hamam olarak hizmete açıldı.

İstanbul’un en çok ziyaret edilen tarihi yapılarından birisi de Sultanahmet Camii’dir.

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           Sultanahmet Camii, Osmanlı İmparatorluğu padişahı 1. Ahmet tarafından yaptırıldı. 1609 –1616 tarihleri arasında inşa edilen yapı klasik Türk sanatının en büyük örneklerinden birisidir. 6 minare ile inşa edilen ilk camidir. Camii’nin mimarı olan Mimar Sedefkâr Mehmet Ağa, Osmanlı’nın meşhur mimarı Mimar Sinan’ın öğrencisidir.

           Sultanahmet Camii sadece bir camii değil bir çok yapıyı içinde barındıran bir komplekstir. İçinde arasta, hamam, aşevi, hastane, eğitim alanları, kervansaray ve Sultan Ahmed’in türbesi bulunur. Caminin girişi, Osmanlı’dan önce İstanbul’a sahip olan Romalılardan kalma hipodrom tarafındadır.

           Caminin üç tarafı balkonlarla çevrilidir. Ana giriş kapısının karşısında, mihrap ve mihrabın yanında oyma işçiliğinin en güzel örneklerinden biri olan mermer minder bulunmaktadır. Caminin kubbesi, Osmanlı camilerinde bulunanlar arasında en görkemlisidir. Ana kubbe 43 metre yüksekliğinde ve 23.5 metre çapındadır.

           Sultanahmet Camii’nin mimarisi yalnızca Osmanlı izleri taşımaz. Bizans dönemi mimari özellikleri de kullanılmıştır camide. Cami içinde ustaca yerleştirilen 260 adet pencere sayesinde içeride çok ferah bir hava yaratılmıştır. Pencerelerin yerleştiriliş şeklinden dolayı ana kubbe sanki havada asılıymış gibi görünür. Benzerlerinin aksine bu cami oldukça aydınlık ve ferahtır.

           Sultanahmet Camii’nin iç yapısında kullanılan 12 farklı cinsteki mermer ile özel bir akustik yapı oluşturulmuştur. İç alanda bir kişinin konuşması ile çıkan yankının tüm alana bozulmadan iletilmesi için özel olarak çalışılmıştır. Mimar Mehmet Ağa’nın musiki bilgisi, Sultanahmet Camii’nin akustik yapısını geliştirmesinde büyük katkı sağladığı bilinmektedir.

Bu yapı şu anda Müze Ofisi olarak kullanılmaktadır.

           Ayasofya; İmparator Justinianos tarafından, döneminin en iyi mimarları olan İsidoros ile Anthemios’a yaptırılmıştır. 532 yılında inşasına başlanan yapı 5 yıl gibi kısa bir sürede tamamlanmıştır. 5 yıl bu büyüklükteki bir yapı için oldukça kısa bir süredir. 537 yılında yapımı tamamlanan kilise, büyük bir törenle ibadete açılmıştır.

           Ayasofya Kilisesi, Doğu Roma İmparatorluğu’nun İstanbul’da yapmış olduğu en büyük kilisedir. İlk ismi Megale Ekklesia (Büyük Kilise)’dır. 5. yüzyıldan itibaren kutsal bilgelik anlamına gelen “Ayasofya” ismini almıştır. Doğu Roma İmparatorluğu boyunca Ayasofya hükümdarların taç giydiği, başkentin en büyük kilisesi olarak katedral görevi görmüştür.

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           Ayasofya, birçok kez tahribata ve yıkıma uğradı. IV. Haçlı Seferi sırasında gördüğü hasar yapının tarihinde gördüğü en büyük hasardır. 1204 yılında şehri ele geçiren şövalyeler, Ayasofya’da bulunan pek çok kutsal eşyayı yağmaladı. 1344 yılında şehirde yaşanan deprem, Ayasofya’da büyük bir yıkıma ve bir süre ibadete kapanmasına yol açtı. Halktan toplanan özel vergilerle ve bağışlarla 1354 senesinde tamir edilerek tekrar ibadete açıldı.

           1453 yılında Osmanlı Devleti padişahı II. Mehmet şehri fethettiğinde tam 916 yıl boyunca kilise olarak kullanılan bu mabed şehrin fethinin sembolü olarak camiye çevrildi. İstanbul’u fethettikten sonra Fatih ünvanı alan Sultan Mehmet, kendisine ganimet payı olarak sadece Ayasofya’nın mülkiyetini aldı. Ayasofya’nın kuzeyine, Fatih Dönemi’nde bir medrese yaptırılmıştır.

           Bir diğer Osmanlı padişahı olan Sultan I. Mahmut ise Ayasofya’ya bir çok ekleme yaptırdı. Mimari güzellikleri eşsiz olan şadırvan, sıbyan mektebi, aşhane-imaret, kütüphane, Hünkâr Mahfili ve mihrap inşa ettirdi. Böylece Ayasofya bir külliyeye dönüştü.

           Ayasofya’da en kapsamlı tamir çalışmaları Abdülmecid Dönemi’nde (1839-1861) Fossati tarafından yapılmıştır. Bu onarım çalışmaları kapsamında, mihrabın kuzeyinde bulunan Hünkâr Mahfili kaldırılmış, yerine mihrabın solunda, sütunlar üzerinde yükselen, etrafı ahşap yaldızlı korkuluklarla çevrili Hünkâr Mahfili yapılmıştır.

Ali, Hz. Hasan ve Hz. Hüseyin” yazılı bu levhalar tarihin en büyük hat levhaları olarak bilinmektedir. Aynı hat ustası merkezdeki kubbenin ortasına Nur Suresi’nin 35. ayetini yazmıştır.

           1932 senesinde restorasyon çalışmaları için ibadete kapatılan Ayasofya’da, Türk hükûmetinin izniyle ABD’li bir grup bilim insanı tarafından çalışmalar yapıldı. Fatih Sultan Mehmet tarafından üzeri sıvayla kapatılan mozaikler tekrar ortaya çıkarıldı. O sıralarda Bakanlar Kurulu kararı ile yapı, müzeye çevrildi ve 1 Şubat 1935’de müze olarak ziyaretçilere açıldı.

           Ayasofya’nın ölçüleri 100×70 m’dir ve yaklaşık 7500 m²’lik bir iç alana sahiptir. İki katlı bir yapısı vardır. 40 tanesi alt katta 67 tanesi üst kattaki galeri kısmında olmak üzere içinde toplam 107 adet sütun vardır. Sütunların en uzunları yaklaşık 20 metredir. Sütunların yarıçapı 1,5 metre ve tahmini ağırlığı 70 tondur. Yapıda kullanılan sütunların çoğu, binadan daha eskidir. Bunun nedeni, kullanılan sütunların Anadolu’daki çeşitli yerlerindeki farklı mabetlerden getirtilmiş olmasıdır.

           Bizans döneminde yıkılan kubbe yeniden tamir edilmiştir. Bu sebeple kubbe tam yuvarlak değil, elips şekline daha yakındır ve iki farklı yarıçapı vardır. Kubbe çapı 30.80 ile 32.6 metredir. Kubbe yüksekliği ise 55.60 metredir.

           Yapının görkemli kapıları meşe ağacından yapılmadır ve Bizans döneminin izlerini hala taşımaktadır. Tunç kapı ise Tarsus’daki Hellenistik bir tapınaktan bu yapıya özel olarak getirtilmiştir ve Ayasofya’nın en görkemli kapısıdır. Batı bölümünde dokuz farklı kapı ile mekânın asıl girişine girilmektedir. Ortada yer alan üç kapı imparatorun girişine ayrılmış olduğu için bu kapılara “2 İmparator Kapısı” adı verilmiştir.

           Ayasofya’nın iç bölümünün altın mozaikli duvar resimleriyle bezeli olduğu söylenmektedir. Ancak bu mozaiklerin resim düşmanlığı akımı sırasında ortadan kaldırıldığı düşünülüyor. Bu akımın sona ermesiyle 9. Yüzyılın sonlarına doğru mozaikler yeniden yapılmaya başlanmıştır. Bu mozaiklerin üstü Osmanlı Dönemi’nde sıvayla kapatılmıştır.

           Tarihi Yarımada dediğimiz zaman tabii ki ilk olarak aklımıza Topkapı Sarayı geliyor. 1478 yılında Fatih Sultan Mehmet tarafından yaptırılan bu saray uzun bir süre kullanılmıştı. Saray resmi olarak 3 Nisan 1924’te Mustafa Kemal Atatürk tarafından müze halini aldı. Sarayın içinde Enderun Mektebi de yer aldığı için idari amacının yanında önemli bir eğitim kurumu da oldu.

           Topkapı Sarayı’nın içinde bulunan Aya İrini Kilisesi ”Kutsal Barış” anlamını taşıyor. Aya İrini Kilisesi’nin bulunduğu bu yerde daha önceleri Jüpiter Tapınağı bulunmaktaymış. Yıkılan tapınaktan sonra Konstantin tarafından Aya İrini Kilisesi yaptırılmış. Yapı Fatih Sultan Mehmet zamanında cephanelik olarak kullanılmış.

           Tarihi Yarımada dendiği zaman ilk akla gelenlerden bir tanesi de Ayasofya. ”Kutsal Bilgelik” anlamını taşıyan Ayasofya dünyanın ilk katedralidir. Ortalama olarak bin yıl boyunca ”dünyanın en büyük katedrali” unvanını taşımıştır. Aradan geçen 1.500 yılın sonunda unvanı pek gerilememiştir. Çünkü hala dünyanın en büyük dördüncü katedralidir. Ayasofya fetihten sonra camiye çevrilmiş ve asırlar boyunca bu şekilde kullanılmıştır. Mustafa Kemal Atatürk’ün emri doğrultusunda 1930 yılında restore edilerek müze olarak kullanılmaya başlanmıştır.

           İstanbul’un en turistik noktalarından bir tanesi olan Yerebatan Sarnıcı Bizans İmparatoru Justinianus tarafından yaptırılmıştır. Bu sarnıç su depolamak için yapılmıştır. Fetih sonrasında sarnıç unutulmuştur. 1550 yılında Avrupalı iki gezgin tarafından keşfedilmiştir. Sultan 3. Ahmet ve 2. Abdülhamit tarafından restore edilmiştir fakat Osmanlı’nın akarsu sevmesinden kaynaklı olarak kullanılmamıştır. 1987 yılında İstanbul Belediyesi tarafından temizlenip restore edilerek turizme kazandırılmıştır.

           Tarihi Yarımada bölgesinde üç adet sarnıç bulunuyor. Şerefiye, Yerebatan ve Binbirdirek. Bu bölgeye gelindiği zaman üç sarnıcı da gezerek büyülenebilirsiniz. Binbirdirek ise Yerebatan Sarnıcı’ndan sonra İstanbul’un ikinci büyük sarnıcı. 4. yüzyılda yaptırılmış olan sarnıç sarayın su ihtiyacını karşılamak için inşa ettirilmiş. İçinde 224 sütun bulunuyor ve her biri 14 sütunlu 16 sıradan oluşuyor.

           Süleymaniye Camii Kanuni Sultan Süleyman tarafından 1557 yılından Mimar Sinan’a yaptırılmıştır. Mimar Sinan Süleymaniye Camii için ”kalfalık eserim” demiştir. Yapı Osmanlı’nın en görkemli zamanında inşa edildiği için büyük önem taşımaktadır.

           Türkiye’nin ilk altı minareli camisi olan Sultan Ahmet Camii, I. Ahmet tarafından yaptırılmıştır. Cami 1616 yılında tamamlanmıştır. Rivayete göre Sultan I. Ahmet caminin minaresinin altından olmasını istemiştir. Sedefkar Mehmet Ağa ise altından yapılan minarenin bütçeyi zorlayacağını düşünmüştür. Bu yüzden ”altın minare” sözcüklerini ”altı minare” olarak anladığını bahane ederek camiyi altı minareli yapmıştır. Sultan Ahmet Camii İstanbul siluetini süsleyen oldukça önemli bir eserdir. Dekorasyonunda İznik çinileri kullanıldığı için ”Blue Mosque” olarak da bilinmektedir.

           Sirkeci’de bulunan Dördüncü Vakıf Han, Mimar Kemaleddin Bey tarafından 1911 yılında, çevredeki ofis bina ihtiyacını karşılama amacıyla tasarlanmıştır. Yapımına ise 1912’de başlanmış ve savaş sebebiyle ancak 1926 yılında tamamlanabilmiştir. Mimarisinde Batı esintileri taşıyan bu özel yapı, İstanbul’un fethinden itibaren Avrupa ile artan ilişkiler sebebiyle gerçek bir Avrupa kenti görünümüne kavuşan Galata bölgesindeki iş merkezlerinden yalnızca bir tanesidir. Günümüzde ise aslına uygun şekilde restore edilmiştir ve Legacy Ottoman Hotel ismiyle İstanbul’a gelen tarih severleri ağırlamaya devam etmektedir.

           Beyoğlu’nun önemli simgelerinden olan Çiçek Pasajı, 1876 yılında mimar Cleanthy Zanno tarafından yapılmıştır. Neo- barok tarzda inşa edilen bu yapının içerisinde Paris tarzında düzenlenmiş 24 dükkan ve üstünde de 18 lüks daire bulunmaktadır. Batı tarzında yapılmış bu görkemli yapı, bugün de ilk günkü gibi insanları etkilemeye ve dikkat çekmeye devam etmektedir.

           Günümüzde İstanbul’un Fatih ilçesi sınırları içerisinde yer alan Saraçhane, İstanbul’un fethinden sonra şehirde kurulan ilk Osmanlı semtidir. Sınırları oldukça geniş olan semt, Fatih Camii ve Külliyesi’nin inşa edilmesiyle birlikte gelişmeye başlamıştır. O yıllarda boş olan bölgeyi şenlendirmek için Fatih Sultan Mehmed, buraya mektepler, hanlar, hamamlar ve çarşılar yaptırmıştır.

           İstanbul’un tarihi semtlerinden Süleymaniye, 16. yüzyıldan günümüze kurulan bir köprü niteliğindedir. Osmanlı Devleti’nden Cumhuriyet Dönemi’ne kadar birçok ayaklanmaya şahit olan semt, ilk olarak Osmanlı’ya uzun süre hükmeden Kanuni Sultan Süleyman döneminde kurulmuştur. 16. yüzyılda inşa edilen Külliye’nin etrafında gelişen Süleymaniye semti, eğitim kurumları ve ulema sınıfından oluşan sakinleri ile kısa sürede Osmanlı’nın en seçkin semti halini almıştır.

           İstanbul’un tarihi semtlerinden Eminönü, sadece Osmanlı döneminde değil Bizans döneminde de yönetim birimlerinin yer aldığı bölgedir. Eminönü semtinin bulunduğu mevki, İstanbul’un ilk kurulduğu mevkidir. Osmanlı döneminde burada Gümrük Eminliği bulunduğu için semtin ismi Eminönü olmuştur. İstanbul’un kuruluşu kadar eski bir tarihe sahip olan bu güzide semt, günümüzde de İstanbul’un en önemli tarihi eserlerine ev sahipliği yapmaktadır.

           İstanbul’un tarihi semtlerinden biri olan Ayvansaray, fetihin ardından oldukça parlak bir döneme girmiştir. Surların bittiği yer ile Abdülvedûd Mescidi arasındaki kıyı parçasına Sultan IV. Mehmed’in kızı Hatice Sultan’ın sarayı inşa edilmiştir. Zamanla daha fazla gelişen semtin kıyısındaki iskeleler, yalı ve sahil sarayları; semtin güzelliğini pekiştirmiştir.

           İstanbul’un en güzel semtlerinden Üsküdar, İstanbul’un fethinden sonra hızla gelişmeye başlamıştır. Öncesinde küçük bir Anadolu kasabasını andıran semt, fethin ardından şehir dokusunu oluşturacak ilk nüveler ile kendini belli etmiştir. Fatih devrinde, adeta yeniden kurulmuştur. 16. yüzyıldan itibaren ise Osmanlı Üsküdar’a 91 cami ve mescit, 51 tekke, 12 hamam, 11 kervansaray, 2 imaret, 7 medrese, 260 çeşme, 5 büyük iskele, 2 darüşşifa, 2 menzilhane, tabhane, sıbyan mektepleri, kütüphaneler, darülhadis, sebiller ve posta teşkilatı ile birçok padişah, sultan, paşa ve devlet adamlarının sarayları, yalı ve köşkleri inşa ettirerek gelişmesine destek olmuştur.

           İstanbul’un en eski, en işlek ve en kalabalık semtlerinin başında gelen Karaköy, Osmanlı döneminde bir finans merkezi konumundaydı. O yıllarda bankacılık ve sigortacılığın merkezi olan Karaköy, günümüzde de benzer şekilde İstanbul’un önemli bir ticaret ve ulaşım merkezidir.

           Sirkeci, Osmanlı döneminde Topkapı Sarayı’na ve Sadrazamlık binası Babıali’ye olan yakınlığı sebebiyle oldukça önemli bir semtti. Deniz kenarında olduğu için de Babıali’nin iskelesi olma konumundaydı. 1885 yılına gelindiğinde Orient Ekspress’in hizmete girmesi ve 1890 yılında Sirkeci Garı’nın faaliyete başlamasından sonra ise semt daha da büyük bir önem kazandı. Sirkeci günümüzde de İstanbul’un tarihi güzelliklerine ev sahipliği yapmakta ve turistler tarafından ciddi şekilde ilgi görmektedir.

           İstanbul’un yedi tepesinden biri olan Edirnekapı, Osmanlı döneminde imparatorların gözdesi olmuş bir semttir. İsmini ise aynı dönemde Edirne’den gelenlerin İstanbul’a girdiği kapı olmasından almıştır. Fetih sırasındaki çarpışmalarda ilk gedik bu kapıda açılmış ve Fatih Sultan Mehmed’in atı ile şehre girdiği ilk yer burası olmuştur. İmparatorluk döneminde padişahların Eyüp Camii’nde kılıç kuşandıktan sonra şehre girmek için kullandıkları kapı da yine burasıdır.

           Dünyanın en çok ziyaret edilen müzelerinden bir tanesi olan Ayasofya ‘’İlahi Bilgelik” anlamına gelmektedir. Ayasofya İstanbul’da inşa edilen en büyük Bizans kilisesidir. 916 yıl boyunca kilise olarak kullanılan yapı İstanbul’un fethi ile birlikte camiye çevrilmiştir. 1935 yılında Atatürk’ün isteği ile müzeye dönüştürülmüştür. Bizans mimarisini anlamak için büyük öneme sahiptir.

           ”Kutsal Barış” anlamını taşıyan Aya İrini Kilisesi, Ayasofya’nın komşusudur ve aynı dönemde inşa edilmiştir. İstanbul fethi ile birlikte Topkapı Sarayı’nın surları içerisinde kalmasına rağmen camiye çevrilmemiştir. Bu yüzden de günümüze mimari değişikliğe uğramadan gelebilmiştir. Aya İrini Kilisesi Türkiye’deki müze anlayışı için büyük öneme sahiptir. Çünkü ilk müze çalışmaları burada yapılmıştır.

Sarnıcın amacı su depolayarak saraya su sağlamaktır. Yapı İstanbul’un fethi ile bir müddet kullanılmış, sonrasındaysa unutulmuştur. 1500’lü yıllarda Hollandalı iki gezgin burayı fark etmiş ve tekrardan gün yüzüne çıkmasını sağlamıştır.

Beylerbeyi sarayı eski zamanlarda yazlık saray olarak kullanıldığı gibi yabancı konuklar da burada ağırlanmıştır.

           İstanbul’un fethinin ardından inşa ettirilen bu sarayın yapımı 17 yıl sürmüştür. Fatih Sultan Mehmet’in inşa ettirdiği yapı 1461 yılında yapılmaya başlanmıştır. Topkapı Sarayı’nda devlet işleri yürütülmüş ve hanedan üyeleri yaşamıştır. İstanbul’un en fazla ziyaret edilen müzelerinden bir tanesi olan Topkapı Sarayı’nda kutsal emanetleri, Kaşıkçı Elması, kıyafet koleksiyonu ve Çin porselen koleksiyonu gibi birçok eseri görmek mümkündür.

One day, after following him to his nest, he catches, bakes and eats. They build the Galata Tower where its nest is located, for his memory.

           According to another legend; They say you marry the person you go to Galata Tower with. This legend is from the Roman period. According to this belief; A couple who went to Galata Tower for the first time together would definitely get married. If one of the parties has been to the tower before, this talisman is broken.

           In another legend, Galata Tower and Maiden’s Tower are in love with each other, but the Bosphorus between them prevents lovers from meeting. Galata Tower writes his love in letters for years and puts his longing for the Maiden’s Tower into words. When Hezarfen Ahmet Çelebi goes to the tower to fly, Galata Tower whispers his love for the Maiden’s Tower in his ear and gives the letters to him. Taking the wind behind him, Hezarfen delivers the letters to the Maiden’s Tower. Thus, the Maiden’s Tower realizes that her love is not one-sided. These two lovers create the most beautiful view of Istanbul.

           By the order of Fatih Sultan Mehmet, a tower was built here. It is not clear exactly what purpose this tower was built for. Damaged in the Istanbul earthquake in 1509, the tower was repaired by Hayrettin, the famous architect of that time.

           In ancient times, a Roman emperor is told by fortune tellers that his wife will die. She puts her in the Maiden’s Tower to protect her queen.

Very impressed by this dream, the sultan puts his daughter in the tower. He does not allow anyone to enter the tower, including himself. Years later, this girl gets sick. It improves after a tough treatment. Thereupon, gifts are sent to the tower from many different places, among which there is a basket of grapes. The snake hiding in the grape basket poisoned the young girl that night, causing her death.

           The Topkapi Palace generally consists of the buildings reserved for the officials working in the palace, the residence of the sovereign and the apartments allocated to state affairs. The building was built on the Byzantine acropolis. The area around Topkapı Palace is surrounded by the walls, which are called “Sur-ı Sultani”, which is 1400 meters long and surrounded by the Byzantine walls by the sea.

           The palace is located on an area of 700,000 square meters. A large part of 700,000 square meters belongs to Hasbahçe. The palace consists of two organisations. One of them is the Birun, and the other is Enderun. The Palace’s venues, ceremonies and session plan are arranged in line with this organization.

           Topkapi Palace generally consists of garden, hasbahçe, harem, four courtyards and three main doors. It would be right to say humbly for Topkapı Palace because large expenditures have been used for bridges, mosques, barracks, caravanserais and accommodation facilities.

           Mustafa Kemal Atatürk provided the proper transformation of Topkapı Palace into a museum. But the function of the museum dates back to 1839-1861, the time of Sultan Abdülmecid. At that time, it was a tradition to show old works to state elders and foreigners.

           Galatasaray Hammam is one of the most magnificent and famous hamams in Istanbul. Galatasaray Hammam, which has been in service since 1484, is the most preferred bath in Istanbul today. It was used by many sultans, grand viziers and pashas in history.

           A story is told about the construction of Galatasaray Hammam. According to the rumors, while walking around the area where the current Galatasaray High School and Galatasaray Bath are located, Sultan Second Beyazıt encounters someone named Gül Baba. This person asks the sultan to build a large school and a social complex with a large domed bath that will rule over the centuries. The Sultan accepts this request and starts the construction in 1481. Gül Baba’s tomb is in this complex today.

           The Hagia Sophia Hürrem Sultan Bath, built in 1556, was built by Hürrem Sultan, the wife of Suleiman the Magnificent. Mimar Sinan broke new ground in Turkish bath architecture by building the men’s and women’s sections on the same axis for the first time. The bathhouse, which Hürrem Sultan had built as a charity, was used as a warehouse for many years. It was reopened as a bathhouse in 2011.

           Istanbul is a city that welcomes visitors from all over the world. With its historical structure, location, beauty and story, it has always been at the focus of people. One of the most visited historical buildings in Istanbul is the Blue Mosque. The Blue Mosque is located right across the Hagia Sophia in the Historical Peninsula, the center of the city’s history. This historical mosque also gave its name to the square where it is located.

           The Blue Mosque was built by the Ottoman Empire Sultan Ahmet I. Built between 1609 and 1616, the building is one of the greatest examples of classical Turkish art. It is the first mosque built with 6 minarets. Architect Sedefkar Mehmet Aga, the architect of the Mosque, is a student of the famous architect of the Ottoman, Mimar Sinan.

           The Blue Mosque is not only a mosque but a complex that includes many buildings. It contains the bazaar, Turkish bath, public soup-kitchen, hospital, education areas, caravanserai and Sultan Ahmed’s tomb. The entrance of the mosque is on the side of the Roman hippodrome that had Istanbul before the Ottoman Empire.

           Three sides of the mosque are surrounded by balconies. Opposite the main entrance, the mihrab and next to it, there is a marble cushion, one of the most beautiful examples of carving. The dome of the mosque is the most magnificent among those found in Ottoman mosques. The main dome is 43 meters high and 23.5 meters in diameter.

           The architecture of the Blue Mosque does not only bear Ottoman traces. Byzantine architectural features were also used in the mosque. Thanks to the 260 windows skillfully placed in the mosque, a very spacious atmosphere is created inside. Due to the way the windows are placed, the main dome looks as if it were suspended in the air. Unlike its counterparts, this mosque is very bright and spacious.

           A special acoustic structure was created with 12 different types of marble used in the interior structure of the Blue Mosque. Special efforts have been made to convey the echo that emerges with the speech of a person in the interior area without distortion. It is known that the musical knowledge of Architect Mehmet Ağa contributed greatly to the improvement of the acoustic structure of the Blue Mosque.

           It was built in 1619 in the northeast corner of the Sultanahmet Complex. The tomb is covered with a dome resting on a polygonal drum. The entrance to the tomb looks like a three-part portico.

           In the Ottoman Empire, there are 29 of the 38 timing houses built for the determination of prayer times, which have survived until today. One of them is in the Blue Mosque. The windows are made large so that the clocks in the timekeeping can be seen by everyone when viewed from the outside. This building is currently used as the Museum Office.

           In this area, the sultans hosted their visitors before or after prayers. He was chatting with them and listening to their troubles. This part, which has undergone many renovations, has survived until today without any damage. The Hünkar Pavilion in the Blue Mosque consists of two rooms.

           Hagia Sophia; it was built by Emperor Justinianos to Isidoros and Anthemios, the best architects of this time. The construction of which was started in 532, was completed in a short time like 5 years. 5 years is a very short time for a building of this size. The church, which was completed in 537, was opened for worship with a great ceremony.

           Hagia Sophia Church is the largest church that the Eastern Roman Empire has built in Istanbul. Its first name is Megale Ekklesia (Great Church). Since the 5th century, it was named as “Hagia Sophia”, which means sacred wisdom. Throughout the Eastern Roman Empire, Hagia Sophia served as the cathedral as the capital’s largest church, crowned by monarchs.

           Hagia Sophia was destroyed many times. The damage it suffered during the 4th Crusade is the biggest damage that the building suffered in its history. The knights who took over the city in 1204 looted many holy items found in Hagia Sophia. The earthquake that occurred in the city in 1344 caused a great destruction in Hagia Sophia and its closure to worship for a while. It was repaired in 1354 with special taxes and donations collected from the public and reopened for worship.

           In 1453, when the Ottoman Sultan Mehmet II conquered the city, this temple, which was used as a church for 916 years, was turned into a mosque as a symbol of the conquest of the city. After conquering Istanbul, Sultan Mehmet, who received the title of Fatih, took ownership of only Hagia Sophia as a loot for him. A madrasa was built in the north of Hagia Sophia during the Fatih Period.

           Sultan Mahmud I, another Ottoman sultan, made many additions to Hagia Sophia. He has built a fountain, a median school, a souphouse-imaret, a library, Hünkâr Mahfili and a mihrab, whose architectural beauties are unique. So Hagia Sophia turned into a complex.

           The most comprehensive repairs in Hagia Sophia were carried out by Fossati during the Abdulmecid Period (1839-1861). Within the scope of these repairs, the Hünkâr Mahfili located in the north of the mihrab was removed and instead of the Hünkâr Mahfili, rising on the columns to the left of the mihrab, surrounded by wooden gilded railings.

           Within the scope of environmental arrangements made during the Abdulaziz Period, the madrasah around Hagia Sophia was demolished between the years (1869-1870) and rebuilt between 1873-1874. The ruins of the madrasah, which was destroyed in 1936, were discovered by excavations in 1982.

           8 calligraphy plates with a diameter of 7.5 meters were hung on the walls of the main room by calligrapher Kadıasker Mustafa İzzet Efendi. These signs that say “Allah, Muhammed, Ebubekir, Ömer, Osman, Ali, Hasan and Hüseyin” are known as the biggest calligraphy signs in history. The same calligrapher wrote the 35th verse of Surat an-Nur in the center of the dome in the center.

           In 1932, in Ayasofya, which was closed for worship for restoration works, studies were carried out by a group of scientists from the USA with the permission of the Turkish government. Mosaics covered with plaster by Fatih Sultan Mehmet were revealed again. At that time, with the decision of the Council of Ministers, the building was converted into a museum and opened to visitors as a museum on February 1, 1935.

           The dimensions of Hagia Sophia are 100 × 70 m and it has an interior area of approximately 7500 m². It has a two-story structure. There are 107 columns in total, 40 of which are on the lower floor and 67 of which are in the gallery section on the upper floor. The longest of the columns is about 20 meters. The columns have a radius of 1.5 meters and an estimated weight of 70 tons. Most of the columns used in the building are older than the building. This is because the columns used were brought from different temples in various parts of Anatolia.

           The dome, which was destroyed in the Byzantine period, was repaired. For this reason, the dome is not exactly round, it is closer to the elliptical shape and has two different radii. The dome diameter is between 30.80 and 32.6 meters. The dome height is 55.60 meters.

           The magnificent doors of the building are made of oak and still bear the traces of the Byzantine period. The bronze door was specially brought to this structure from a Hellenistic temple in Tarsus and it is the most magnificent door of Hagia Sophia. The main entrance of the space is entered through nine different doors in the western section. Since the three gates in the middle are reserved for the emperor’s entrance, these gates are called “2 Emperor’s Doors”.

           It is said that the interior of Hagia Sophia is decorated with golden mosaic murals. However, these mosaics are thought to be eliminated during the anti-picture movement. With the end of this trend, mosaics started to be rebuilt towards the end of the 9th century. These mosaics were covered with plaster during the Ottoman Period.

      <title>Top 8 Must-See Places in the Historical Peninsula</title>
      <link>https://www.legacyottomanhotel.com/top-8-must-see-places-in-the-historical-peninsula</link>
      <description>If you have come to Istanbul and want to visit historical places, your first stop should be the Historic Peninsula. You ask why?

           If you have come to Istanbul and want to visit historical places, your first stop should be the Historic Peninsula. You ask why? Because the first settlement in the Historic Peninsula goes back to 685 BC; at the same time, this region is a very important settlement for Byzantine and Ottoman. Therefore, there are many historical monuments such as fountains, mosques, churches and palaces. In fact, a large part of the ancient artefacts that are to be seen in Istanbul can be mentioned here.

           When we mention the historical peninsula, of course, Topkapı Palace comes to our minds. This palace was built by Fatih Sultan Mehmet in 1478 and was used for a long time. Palace officially became a museum on April 3, 1924, by Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. In addition to its administrative purpose, Enderun School was also an outstanding educational institution.

           Hagia Irene Church, located in the Topkapı Palace, means ”Holy Peace”. There was previously a Temple of Jupiter in the place where Hagia Eirene Church is located. After the destroyed temple, the Church of Hagia Irene was built by Constantine. The building was used as an arsenal in the time of Fatih Sultan Mehmet.

           One of the first things that come to mind when the Historic Peninsula is called is Hagia Sophia. Hagia Sophia, which means “Holy Wisdom”, is the world’s first cathedral. On average, for a thousand years, he has been titled ‘the world’s largest cathedral’. At the end of 1,500 years, its title has not declined because it is still the fourth largest cathedral in the world. The Hagia Sophia was converted into a mosque after the conquest and was used in this way for centuries. It was restored in 1930 following the order of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk and started to be used as a museum.

           One of the most touristic places of Istanbul, the Basilica Cistern was built by the Byzantine Emperor Justinianus. This cistern was made to store water. The cistern was forgotten after the conquest. It was discovered in 1550 by two European travellers. It was restored by Sultan III Ahmet and Abdülhamit II. However, it was not used as a result of the love of the Ottoman for flowing water. In 1987, it was cleaned and restored by Istanbul Municipality, and it was brought into tourism.

           There are three cisterns in the Historic Peninsula area. Serefiye, Yerebatan and Binbirdirek. When you reach this area, you can be enchanted by visiting the three cisterns. Binbirdirek is Istanbul’s second largest cistern after the Basilica Cistern. The cistern built in the 4th century was created to fulfil the water needs of the palace. There are 224 columns in it, and each consists of 14 columns of 16 ordinaries.

           Suleymaniye Mosque was built by Suleiman the Magnificent in 1557 by Mimar Sinan. Mimar Sinan said “My journey era of work” for Suleymaniye Mosque. The structure is of great importance because it was built in the most splendid time of the Ottoman Empire.

           The Ottoman Sultan Ahmet I built Turkey’s first six minarets mosque, the Blue Mosque. The mosque was completed in 1616. According to the story, Sultan I Ahmet wanted the minaret of the mosque to be gold. Sedefkar Mehmet Ağa thought that the minarets made of gold would force the budget. So he made six minarets by saying that he understood the words “gold minaret” as “six minarets”. In Turkish language six means “altı”, gold means “altın”. Sultan Ahmet Mosque is a very important work that decorates Istanbul silhouette. Because Iznik tiles used in the decoration of the mosque, the mosque is also known as the Blue Mosque.

           Located in Sirkeci, Dördüncü Vakıf Han was designed by Architect Kemaleddin Bey in 1911 to meet the need for office buildings in the surrounding area. The construction started in 1912 and was completed in 1926 due to the war. This unique structure with its Western influences in its architecture is only one of the business centres in the Galata region, which has gained the appearance of a real European city due to the developing relations with Europe since the conquest of Istanbul. Today, it has been restored according to its original and continues to host history lovers coming to Istanbul under the name of Legacy Ottoman Hotel.

The architecture of this majestic structure carries traces of the Art Nouveau movement. The front side of the Egypt Apartment, which still maintains its extraordinary influence on the first day, has great balconies, lounges and large windows.

Built in the Art Nouveau style by the architect Raimondo D’Aronco at the beginning of the 20th century. Nowadays, although it is in a state of ruin and needs restoration, it continues to affect the neighbourhood’s atmosphere in the same way.

           One of the most important historical buildings of Beyoğlu, Saint Antoine Apartment was built in 1912 by architects Giulio Mongeri and Edoardo de Nari. This splendid building is entirely different from the apartment buildings that reflect the contemporary trends of the period; it is a huge apartment in the view of the “plazzetto” which can be found in a northern Italian city.

           Istanbul Archeology Museum, which is one of the works of Western style in the late Ottoman period, was built by the famous architect Alexander Vallaury. The structure is one of the most beautiful examples of neoclassical architecture and has an essential place today with its monumental stance.

           Soho House, one of the magnificent buildings of Beyoğlu, was built by Architect Giacomo Leoni in the late Ottoman period. The construction of the building took precisely 9 years, and many materials from Piemonte rosewood doors and window frames to Carrara marble were brought from Italy.

           This historical inn and passageway in Beyoğlu Tünel was built in 1918. Its architecture is inspired by the Western style and has been constructed as three separate buildings; the buildings were connected later. Today, the Syrian Han and Passage are challenging the time with its grandeur.

           Sarachane, which is located in the Fatih district of Istanbul, is the first Ottoman district established after the conquest of Istanbul. The district, whose boundaries are quite extensive, began to develop with the construction of the Fatih Mosque and Complex. In order to revive the empty area in those years, Sultan Mehmed the Conqueror built schools, inns, baths and bazaars.

           Süleymaniye, one of the historical districts of Istanbul, is a bridge that has been established from the 16th century today. The area, which witnessed many uprisings from the Ottoman Empire to the Republic Period, was first established during the reign of Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent. The Süleymaniye district, which was built around the Külliye, which was built in the 16th century, soon became the most prestigious district of the Ottoman Empire with its educational institutions and the residents of the ulema class.

           Ayvansaray, one of the historical districts of Istanbul, entered a very brilliant period after the conquest. The palace was built by Sultan Mehmed IV’s daughter Hatice Sultan to the coastal area between the walls of the walls and the Masjid of Abdülvedûd. Over time, the development of the districts on the shores of the coast, seaside and coastal palaces; has reinforced the beauty of the neighbourhood.

           Uskudar, one of the most beautiful districts of Istanbul, started to develop rapidly after the conquest of Istanbul. Before, the neighbourhood, which resembles a small Anatolian town, is characterised by the first cores to form the urban fabric after the conquest. During the reign of Fatih, it was almost rebuilt. From the 16th century onwards, there were 91 mosques and masjids, 51 monopolies, 12 baths, 11 caravanserais, 2 imaret, 7 madrasahs, 260 fountains, 5 massive piers, 2 hospitals, 2 ranges, guesthouse, primary schools, libraries, darülhadis, Many sultans, pashas and statesmen have supported the development of Uskudar by building palaces, mansions and pavilions.

           Sirkeci was a significant district in the Ottoman period due to its proximity to the Topkapi Palace and the Grand Vizier building Babıali. Since it was on the seaside, it was the port of the Ottoman Palace. In 1885, after the introduction of Orient Express and the building of Sirkeci Station in 1890, the district became even more critical. Today, Sirkeci is home to the historical beauties of Istanbul and attracts considerable attention from tourists.

           One of the seven hills of Istanbul, Edirnekapi is a district that became a favourite of the emperors during the Ottoman period. It was named after the people coming from Edirne in the same period. The first hole was opened at this gate during the battles during the conquest, and this was the first place where Fatih Sultan Mehmed entered the city with his horse. That is the door that the sultans used to enter the Istanbul after the grinding on sword ceremony was erected in the Eyüp Mosque.

           Istanbul had been home to three empires. In the past, hosting great empires has led Istanbul to have many magnificent historical structures left from them. The history of Istanbul is literally the kind of splendour of the city. Here are Byzantine and Ottoman structures survived today.

           One of the most visited museums in the world, Hagia Sophia means ‘Divine Wisdom’. Hagia Sophia is the largest Byzantine church built in Istanbul. The building, which was used as a church for 916 years, was converted into a mosque with the conquest of Istanbul. In 1935, it was turned into a museum with the request of Atatürk. It is of great importance to understand Byzantine architecture.

           Hagia Eirene Church, which means “Sacred Peace”, is a neighbour of Hagia Sophia and was built during the same period. After the conquest of Istanbul, despite the fact that it is located within the walls of the Topkapi Palace, it was not converted into a mosque. Therefore, it has survived to the present day without architectural changes. Hagia Eirene Church has great importance for the understanding of museums in Turkey because the first museum practice was done here.

           The history of the Kariye Museum, which means “outside the city”, dates back to the fourth century. The building built by Justinian was converted into a mosque after the conquest of Istanbul. In 1945, it became a museum. This place, known today as the Kariye Museum, was built in the 11th century. It has been damaged and repaired many times.

           The Basilica Cistern, which is one of the magnificent historic structures of Istanbul, was built by the Byzantine Emperor Justinian I between 527- 565. The aim of the cistern is to provide water to the palace by storing water. The building was used for a while with the conquest of Istanbul, and then it was forgotten. In the 1500s, two Dutch wanderers noticed this place and brought them to the surface again.

           The aqueduct of Bozdoğan, the oldest aqueduct in Istanbul, was built by Emperor Valens. In the late Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman periods, the aqueduct provided the water needs of the city for 1500 years. The water of the Basilica Cistern comes from here.

           A wooden palace was built in the first quarter of 19th century instead of Beylerbeyi Palace. But the palace was burned after a while. Then, the famous architect of the period Sarkis Balyan built the mansion we see today for Sultan Abdülaziz. Beylerbeyi Palace was used as a summer palace in the Ottoman Period, and foreign guests were also accommodated here.

           Burek, which was prepared by filling phyllo with feta cheese, minced meat or vegetables, was as common in old Ottoman cuisine as it is now. The birthplace of this delicious food is, of course, Balkan cuisine! By reaching another level of taste with the delightful Balkan yoghurt, burek is another one of the indispensable flavours of both ours and the Balkan kitchen.

           One of the most popular flavours of our table is the homemade Balkan cuisine. Bell peppers stuffed with rice, ground beef, vegetables, baked in the oven, not in the saucepan in Balkan cuisine. Although we usually cook in the pan, this great flavour is one of the most popular tastes of our tables!

           In the Balkan cuisine, this flavour, which is called Palachinke and is almost the same as the pancake, is prepared by frying and baking a smooth dough made from the egg, wheat flour, milk and salt. Then it is served with the addition of chocolate, jam or fruit.

           The popular taste of our meals is dry beans, a ubiquitous meal in Balkan cuisine. But of course, there are some differences. Baked beans are usually made in the pan in the Balkans and are drier than in ours. Beans are left hardier and prepared with minimum tomato paste. Of course, its taste is as beautiful as ours!

           This beautiful sauce from Balkan cuisine is also very popular in our country. Usually prepared with eggplant, red pepper and garlic, ajvar is originally a Yugoslavian flavour. Nowadays, this sauce, which is still very much made in our kitchen and on the Balkan cuisine, is usually prepared in the autumn months and consumed with real pleasure in the winter.

           One of the indispensable tastes that come from Balkan cuisine to our table is without a doubt Elbasan Tava. This dish is of Albanian origin prepared with boiled lamb meat with eggs, garlic and yoghurt sauce then put in the oven, named after the city of Elbasan, Albania. It is claimed that this delicious dish was made in its best place; The reason is the very healthy diet of animals grown in the region and the meat’s smell of thyme.

&lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
&lt;div data-rss-type="text"&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Fodula is one of the interesting but unique tastes of Ottoman cuisine. The most important feature of this different dish is that it is made with veal and rye bread. The rye bread is prepared only by cutting it off and taking out its inside. The veal is cooked with vegetables and placed in the bread. Finally, the bread adorned with butter is smeared in the oven and consumed with a meal after cooking.

&lt;div data-rss-type="text"&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Although the name of this different dish sounds strange, its taste is unquestionable! Melon Dolma materials include melon, beef, rice, almonds, spices, currants, and pistachios. In order to prepare the Melon Dolma, the upper part of the melon is cut into a hat, and its seeds are removed. Then the lamb is cooked on low heat, and a unique mixture is prepared with other ingredients. The final mix is filled into the melon, and the melon is fed into the oven.

           This dish, which is even different in name, was prepared by mincing the veal, lamb and chicken meat and then mixing them with peanuts, eggs, and various spices. After the mixture was prepared, it was rested for a while, added to a thin flask opened in hand, and wrapped in paninum. Then the panis was cut and cooked.

&lt;div data-rss-type="text"&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           One of the interesting tastes of Ottoman cuisine, Mutancana was prepared with lamb, shallots, almonds, red grapes, honey, apricots, plums, and dried figs. The trick about this dish, which is made up of entirely different ingredients, was the cooking and the final mixing of meat and dried fruits.

    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;

&lt;div data-rss-type="text"&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           The name comes from Russian; the taste comes from the Ottoman cuisine, this different kind of food can be described as a kind of ravioli. However, in Piruhi, in contrast to the classic mantı, not meat, cheese and parsley are used. Also, a sauce with the yogurt is poured, and the result is a distinctive flavor worthy of the sultans are revealed…

           We often see fishers in our coastal cities. This situation was the same in the Ottoman period due to the simple supply of fish. During the Ottoman period, fish were cooked with various oils. There were delicacies such as scallops, oyster and mussel rice, mullet soup. Fishers also used to sell raw fish by strolling street by street.

           Finding good Simit (bagels) on many points of Turkey is possible. In the Ottoman period, the Simits and Simit Sellers had an essential place among the people. History sources think that the name of the Simit comes from the city named Smiti, ie Izmit. That is because people traveling from Istanbul to the east or coming to Istanbul were known to stay in Izmit for loosening. The caravans were able to get a Simit that could be prepared quickly. In the Ottoman times, the Simit Sellers were either in a stationary place or on the street with a wheelbarrow.

           The place of dessert culture in the Ottoman Empire is excellent. We can understand this when we look at the Ottoman palace kitchen. In the palace kitchen, it is possible to see two separate branches, helvacıbaşı(halva maker), and tatlıcıbaşı(sweet maker). The situation was the same when we looked at the society. Cookies, sweets, candies, halves, custards were very popular. Mobile vendors offered their desserts in porcelain dishes. The vendor, who left his pot where he sold, would pick up his cup the next day.

           This building, which used to be the Reji Company building during the reign of Abdulhamit II, today serves as Kadir Has University. The Reji Company held the tobacco monopoly in 1884.

           In the 9th century, this church was built in the name of Teodosia, who was declared a saint after his death. In 1453, after Istanbul passed to the Ottoman Empire, it was converted into a mosque.

           The Mongols’ Church of Saint Mary (Bloody Church) is the only church that has been worshiped continuously since the Byzantine period.

           According to a story; The Byzantine Emperor Michael Palaiologos wanted to marry his daughter Maria Despina Palaiologina with the Ilkhanid ruler Hülagü Han, who was a Mongolian state in 1264. But Maria got married to her son Abakan Han after the death of Hülagü Han. Abaka Khan converted to Christianity. Upon Abakan’s death, Maria was sent back to Istanbul. When Maria returned to Istanbul, she built a women’s monastery near the current church.

           Upon the request of the architect Greek Hristodulos (Atik Sinan Pasha), who built the Fatih Mosque after Istanbul was conquered by the Ottoman Empire, Panayia Muhliotissa Church was untouched and remained as a church. The relevant edict of Fatih Sultan Mehmet is still on display in the church.

           The name of Balat; It is thought to derive from the word “palation” which means palace in the Greek language.

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           In the 15th century, Sephardic Jews who fled from the Spanish Inquisition courts and came to Istanbul settled here. They came to Istanbul with the invitation of Sultan Beyazıt II.

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           Jews in Balat, Greeks in Fener and Muslims in Ayvansaray lived peacefully for many years. Jewish communities here left their neighborhoods due to the Israeli immigration that started in the 1950s.

           Having this ornate architecture, the church is also known as the ‘Iron Church’. It is completely made of disassembled iron casting.

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           The Bulgarian community, influenced by the Nationalism movement in the 19th century, wanted to build a church of their own. Leader Stefanaki Bey donated his own house to be able to worship from the Ottoman Empire in 1848.
          
                    &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           Later, parts of the church were produced in Vienna with the project of Architect Housep Aznavur. The parts that were transported to the Golden Horn by ships over the Danube River and the Black Sea in 1896 were combined here.

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           Thus, the Bulgarian church was separated from the Greek Patriarchate and became an independent institution.

           The Basilica Cistern, one of the most special places in Istanbul, was built during the Byzantine period. It was built by Emperor Justinian I (527-565) in order to meet the water needs of the Great Palace and the region.

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           The water of this cistern was brought from the Belgrad Forest with the help of aqueducts.

           The cistern, which was not used after the Byzantine Period, remained in ruins for many years. The cistern came to the fore again, thanks to the discoveries of the Dutchman P. Gyllius, who conducted excavations in Istanbul between 1544-1550.

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           Thanks to Gyllius, who published the information about the building in his travel book, the cistern started to attract attention in the western world. Repairs were carried out during the periods of Ottoman sultans 3’rd Ahmet and 2’nd Abdulhamit.

           After the establishment of the Republic of Turkey in the last 3 years, in 1955 a repair and cleaning work was done. In 1987, a tour platform was added to the cistern and it was opened to visitors.

           At the beginning of the must-see sections of the Basilica Cistern are the pillars with the Medusa Heads.

           The Medusa Heads, which attract the attention of tourists with their interesting appearance, are located inverted under the two columns in the northwest corner of the cistern.

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           It is still unknown where these support stones were brought here. This obscurity has caused many legends to be produced about Medusa Heads.

           According to one of the legends, Medusa is one of the most beautiful women of antiquity with her black eyes and long hair. Medusa, beloved with Perseus, the son of Zeus, was cursed by Athena.

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           The long hair of Medusa, who was cursed by Athena, turned into a snake, and her gaze began to turn the men staring at her to stone.

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           According to another legend, Medusa Heads were put here to protect the cistern.

           It differs from the others with its carving and reliefs of a column between the columns of the cistern. This column, which previously had tear-shaped patterns on it, is believed to represent the slaves who died in the construction of the cistern.

           There are motifs called peacock eyes on the weeping Column. The appearance of this column is like a truncated tree.

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           There is a hole in the middle of the column. It is believed that the wishes and desires of those who put their finger in this hole will come true. That’s why it is also called the Wish Pillar.

           Loti, who entered the Navy at the age of 17, rose to rank in his profession. He spent a lot of time in the Middle East and Far East. It is possible to read his experiences and observations in his books.

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           Pierre Loti wrote the book Aziyade on today’s Pierre Loti Hill because of his love for Istanbul. Loti came to Istanbul many times and lived in Eyüp when he arrived. Aziyade’s book tells the story of a woman named Aziyade whom she met in Istanbul.

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           Loti always describes himself as a Turkish lover throughout his life. 1913 Can not Drive criticism of Western policy in his book Turkey. Likewise, after World War I, he accused France of being an invader.

           In 1920, the writer won the title of honorary citizen of Istanbul. His name was first given to a street and then to a coffeehouse he always visited. The coffeehouse is located on Pierre Loti Hill, so the name of the hill remained Pierre Loti.

           Archeology Museum is the main building of the Istanbul Archeology Museums complex. This building, which is one of the most popular museums in the city, contains very striking works.

           When many magnificent works such as Iskender Tomb, Crying Women Tomb, Lycian Tomb, Tabnit Tomb were brought to Istanbul, a museum building was needed. The classic building of Istanbul Archeology Museums was built opposite the Tiled Pavilion by the famous architect of the period, Alexandre Vallaury. This building was opened to visitors on June 13, 1891.
