Hagia Sophia, Bosphorus Strait and a mosque built by Erdoğan – Photos of architectural wonders from Istanbul
Istanbul is surrounded by seas, its air is clean, and the beautiful city is full of tourists all year round. For many years it was the capital of the Byzantine Empire, then the city, which passed into the hands of the Ottomans, preserved its antiquity for thousands of years, and has become even more beautiful.
Here, one will be amazed by the Hagia Sophia Temple, built 1.5 thousand years ago, and the Ottoman Palace, built in the 19th century.
Most importantly, in a city with such a rich heritage, the Turks have managed to create modern conditions that are convenient for both locals and tourists.
