ZAGAR TOUR
Sightseeing tour of Istanbul with a visit and inspection of monumental, historical and architectural monuments of the city, including:
- Main highways and squares of the city; sights of the city
- Inspection of the medieval part of the "Inner City": fortress walls, Dolmabahce Palace, Maiden Tower, medieval baths. The luxurious Dolmabahce Palace, the most “non-Turkish” of the royal residences in Istanbul, was created to compete in pomposity with the best palaces of European rulers. I must say, Sultan Abdul-Mejid succeeded in this daring plan with great success - the brilliant Baroque style gained a special charm on the shores of the Bosphorus, as every visitor to the Dolmabahce Palace can see.
Bosphorus Strait
The Bosphorus is an important shipping vein for Turkey and the world. It connects the Black Sea with the Sea of Marmara, and the movement of ships on it does not stop either day or night. The strait is very narrow, so collisions in it are far from uncommon. Here you can see huge cruise ships, and warships, and small fishing boats.
By the way, at the pier right on the water make the famous Istanbul sandwiches with fried fish - the smell is appropriate. We suggest you try! View of the city from the sea will reveal all the grandeur and splendor of Istanbul.
Why was the former capital of four empires so attractive to conquerors? What is the significance of this major port? How did the strait affect the architecture of the city? You will find answers to these questions on this tour.
