HISTORIC AREAS OF ISTANBUL
Much more than the geographical meeting of two continents, Istanbul has been a crossroads of religious, artistic and
historic significance for over 2,000 years. Highlights within the Historic Areas of Istanbul include the gorgeous design
and stunning architecture of buildings like the renowned, 6th-century Hagia Sophia, the towering Suleymaniye Mosque
complex and the magnificent Sultanahmet Mosque, more commonly known as the Blue Mosque due to the blue tiles
that decorate the interior walls of this epic structure.
