Overview of your Istanbul tour:

Istanbul was the capital of the Ottoman Empire from 1453 to 1922, so it has many amazing buildings from the Ottoman era. We start our tour in Beyazit Square where the first Ottoman Palace was built after the conquest of Istanbul and today this area is used by Istanbul University . What about the Beyazit Mosque and Complex? It is the most glamorous building in the square and the oldest surviving imperial mosque of Istanbul. Then it's time to see the largest Ottoman mosque called Suleymaniye. This place has one of the best view points. It's just breathtaking! Last thing we can see is Fatih Mosque and Complex which was the first imperial mosque built in Istanbul but it was rebuilt in 1766 after a terrible earthquake. Is that all? Of course, no! You'll have a chance to see some other important things such as Turkish bath, tombstones, street markets from the Ottoman time along the way This tour is a great experience to explore the Ottoman heritage of Istanbul with a guide who is in love with Ottoman history
