Fountain of Sultan Ahmed III

Fountain of Sultan Ahmed III is just one of the places to see in Istanbul, so why not enjoy the other things to explore during your travels? Stroll along the area's seaside or experience its fascinating museums.

Hagia Sophia

4.5/5(2,130 reviews)

Once a church, then a Byzantine cathedral, later a mosque and now a monument, this iconic building is a national treasure.

Yeah!! Even I think the same - this place might be an inspiration for the "Hall of Faces"....we see in that famous HBO series.
