Meet with your Private Professional Licensed Guide at Istanbul Port with your name sign and start for Istanbul trip. Istanbul, one of the greatest cities in the world, will most captivate your attention with the remains of many ancient civilizations and their culture, perfectly combined with the Turkish culture. Today we visit Topkapi Palace which has been the official residence of the Ottoman Sultans and the center of State Administration, and contains the most holy relics of the Muslim world. It is now a museum and exhibiting imperial collections. We enter the Treasury section, where one can see beautiful displays, such as the ‘’Spoonmaker’s Diamond’’ – the 7th largest diamond in the world! Our next visit is the Blue Mosque, the culmination of two centuries of both Ottoman mosque and Byzantine church development. It incorporates some Byzantine elements of the neighboring Hagia Sophia with traditional Islamic architecture and is considered to be the last great mosque of the classical period. The architect has ably synthesized the ideas of his master Sinan, aiming for overwhelming size, majesty and splendor. Drive back to Port.
