Must See Places of Istanbul - Shore Excursion

It's always a good idea to see the highlights of the city during the first day of your visit to Istanbul for a good introduction accompanied by the stories of this stunning city blended with history, culture, mythology, geography and cuisine. Topkapi Palace wasn't only a resident for the sultans but also it witnessed many interesting events. Hagia Sophia is a splendid building where you will enjoy a masterpiece of architecture. Basilica Cistern hides the mystical stories of Medusa and Blue Mosque is probably the best place to see the gorgeous Ottoman tiles. No baseball no basketball, what was there to entertain the residents of Constantinople? It was of course the Hippodrome just like in many other Roman cities. I have always been amazed by the thinking of those people watching the chariot races at the time. For someone who is visiting the Grand Bazaar for the first time it's a place people are just passing by. When it comes to exploring the hidden gems of the market you may need a company.
