I love the atmosphere day and night. Families gathered together making picnic, playing, laughing, buses going everywhere and trams as well. You have cash points and the tourist police 24/7. You can snack on some sweetcorn (5TL) or chestnuts (10TL to 30 TL) which are delicious. As you sit down to watch your environment, people selling water(1TL), tea or coffee will offer everyone for 3TL. One evening as I was sitting on a bench drinking tea, I was approached by a 25 year old man, he started to talk very respectfully so I didn't mind a conversation until he started to flirt. Perfect if that is what you are looking for. I have seen some Turkish guys pretending to be Spanish which I am, to a Korean tourist trying to take him for drinks. It was a bit strange and I would be careful. If you have any problems, talk to the police, present all over the square. Amazing restaurants offering homemade Turkish food for around 32TL (food, drink and bread). The restaurant is called Can. Other similar ones along the tram line.

One of the best place to visit in Istanbul. Magnificent historical structures and beautiful people. Surely, you will fell in love with the beauty of Istanbul. With its find foods and delicacies, hotels, souvenirs and memories. Worth coming back.

Square is definitely a misnomer when describing Sultanahmet Plaza. It is irregular in shape and has no clearly defined boundaries. It includes a park three places of worship, remains of ancient monuments, a fountain and a tomb of the eponymous sultan Ahmed. It is overran by tourists, literally overran. To the point where its hard to find an open spot on a bench if you need to sit down. Access is also limited to a few official entrances while the rest is fenced off. It is very pretty however and there is lots to see, but eating and drinking anywhere in the vicinity is not recommended unless you like paying triple for not very good food. Couple all this with some really well fed cats and dogs and you have a pretty good picture of this central area (not square) of Istanbul

Sultanahmet Square (Hippodrome) Sultanahmet Square was a kind of stadium called the Constantinople Hippodrome during the Roman and Byzantine periods. In this square, where chariots raced for centuries, you can still see some of the historical artifacts from that period. Today, Sultanahmet Square is one of the most touristic places in Istanbul. Among the places surrounding the hippodrome are famous historical monuments such as the Blue Mosque, Ibrahim Pasha Palace (Turkish and Islamic Arts Museum) and Hagia Sophia. Hippodrome of Constantinople: The Hippodrome of Constantinople was built by the famous Roman emperor Constantine the Great (Constantinus) in the 4th century. The Hippodrome, one of the social centers of the city throughout history, had a capacity of tens of thousands of people. The Hippodrome witnessed very important events throughout Byzantine history. Byzantine emperors were crowned in front of enthusiastic crowds in the Hippodrome. On the other hand, the rebellions that dethroned many Byzantine rulers started from here. For example; The Nika Revolt, the largest rebellion in Byzantine history, also spread to the city from here. The rebellion, in which 40,000 people destroyed the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) capital Constantinople, broke out during the reign of Emperor Justinian, which ironically represented the peak of Byzantium. The Hippodrome, where chariots competed during the Roman and Byzantine periods, turned into a public square during the Ottoman Empire. Religious holidays were celebrated and banquets were held in honor of palace weddings in the Hippodrome, which was named "Sultanahmet Square" over time. The Hippodrome was a place where Janissary soldiers proved their courage during the Ottoman period. Some soldiers would climb the Örmetaş in the square to demonstrate their skills. Thus, the people gathered in the square for the festivities would enjoy these shows. Sultanahmet Square is one of the most important tourist centers in Istanbul today. On one side of the square is the Turkish and Islamic Arts Museum, and on the other side is the Sultanahmet Mosque. During the years when chariots raced in the square, there was a U-shaped race track. The rivalry between the Blues and the Greens, the city's most important teams, was attracting tens of thousands of people to the stadium. In addition to being sports clubs, the Blue and Green teams also had political characteristics. The social class and religious sect of the supporters of the two sides differed. This took the competition to a different dimension. There was a hippodrome in each of the leading cities of the ancient world. However, the two most prominent Hippodromes at that time were the Circus Maximus in Rome and the Constantinople Hippodrome in Istanbul. World famous car racers emerged from the Hippodrome in Istanbul. Of these, Porphyrius the Charioteer was the most famous. Born in Libya within Roman borders, Porphyrius competed in many arenas of the ancient world. However, he achieved his most important successes at the Constantinople Hippodrome. The chariots competing in the Hippodrome would race fiercely on the U-shaped race track and show their mastery on the sharp bend at the end of the Hippodrome. In the central section (spina) around which they revolved, there were many historical artifacts. The most important of the monuments adorning the Hippodrome was the Obelisk brought from Egypt. The second was the Serpent Column from Ancient Greece and the third was the Knitting Stone erected by Roman emperors.

You can't leave Istanbul without visiting the Sultan Ahmet. This is the heart & soul of Istanbul. This place is a very historical place with lots of monuments, Museums, parks & mosques around. Crowd is always full, because its in the center of the city. Lots of Souvenir shops, baked corns & chez nuts are available in these places with tastes very nice in cold weather. The Turkish coffee along with Turkish Delight in the nearby restaurants becomes a special treat to visitors. There are lots of restaurants nearby which deals is best of the Turkish foods, which are must visit. Lots of walking is required in this area. I found a scarcity of public toilets in this area.

Sultanahmet Square, nestled in the heart of Istanbul, beckons with its vibrant atmosphere and historical allure. Surrounded by iconic mosques and bustling life, it's a favorite spot for locals and tourists alike. From street vendors offering treats to cozy cafes, there's something for everyone here. With its central location and police presence ensuring safety, it's the perfect starting point for exploring Istanbul's treasures. Don't miss bargaining with boat tour touts for an authentic Istanbul experience. Sultanahmet Square epitomizes the city's enchanting spirit—a must-visit gem in Istanbul's crown.

(Translated by Google) Istanbul would not be so beautiful without the Ottoman. If the zoning massacre in the last century had not been done, Istanbul would be the most beautiful greenest city in the world. Unfortunately, in the last century, in the history of human history, by signing a bear, it destroyed our beautiful cities. Now we're dealing with the trouble of cleaning up and recovering. (Original) Osmanlı da olmasa İstanbul böylesine güzel olmazdı. Son yy daki imar katliamı yapilmasaydi İstanbul dünyanın en güzel en yeşil en düzenli kenti olurdu.

Most popular Istanbul view. Here you can see both: Aya Sofya and Blue Mosque. Worth to visit at night as well.

One of the most famous tourist areas in Istanbul, as well as a popular meeting point. The area is very impressive tourist zone of the Sultanahmet neighborhood on the Historical Peninsula that leads to all historical sites that includes Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, and Topkapi Palace Museum. Once being a Byzantium hippodrome, including Egyptian Obelisk, Serpentine Column, and the Colossus.

(Translated by Google) Another heritage of the magnificent structures from the Ottoman period that bear the traces of the past to the present day ... Yeni Mosque Hünkar Pavilion. It is a structure that many of us have gone through many times without realizing it in the rush of the day. Mother-of-pearl inlay doors, colorful stained glass windows, walls decorated with Iznik tiles ... All of them are valuable and special. As I mentioned above, this is a building that many Istanbulites may have passed before. It is located in Eminönü, on the "Banks Street", opposite the İşbank Museum, during Eminönü's historic New Mosque. A long steep stony welcomes you at the entrance, which looks like two floors from the outside. When we enter this magnificent building that reflects the traces of the 17th century Ottoman Architecture, we meet us with a stony that is generally used as an exhibition space. The end of the stony, which continues as a slight slope, opens to the living area. You start to feel the smell of history behind the kundekari door with mother of pearl inlay. You are fascinated with valuable Iznik tiles and verses covered with verses, stained glass windows, flooring, cedars, and engravings on the walls of the blue. In this building, which has three rooms, the most magnificent is the Head Room. This room, which is right in front of you at the entrance, is decorated with the belongings of the period. The room, in which the wooden carved ceiling is decorated with magnificent carvings, is covered with Iznik tiles with verses on it. The tiles covered in the rooms have added a different beauty to the architecture. The end of the “L” shaped hall opens to the Valide Sultan Circle. There is also a toilet and a bathroom in the corridor next to the Head Room. The ewers, clogs and candlesticks reflecting the traces of the period adorn the bathroom (bathhouse) section. The Hünkar Pavilion was built in the 17th century by the grandson of Suleiman the Magnificent, the wife of the 3rd Murat, Safiye Sultan. The purpose of the pavilion is to rest, worship and stay before and after prayer, especially on special days and nights, such as oil lamps, when the Sultan and his family come to the New Mosque for worship. For this reason, a transition was given to the New Mosque Complex from Yapı. Today, when we look at the building from the outside, the connection between the Yeni Mosque can be seen. The restoration work initiated by the Istanbul Chamber of Commerce in 2004 has been completed and renewed in 4 years, and awaits its visitors as a museum. Today, the stony part of the pavilion hosts different exhibitions on the second Thursday of each month. Yeni Mosque Hünkar Pavilion has also received the 2010 Europe Nostra (Protection of the European Union Cultural Heritage) award. At the same time, as a little advice, I suggest you to visit the historical İş Bank building, which is located across the street, which serves as İşbank Museum today. Moreover, at İşbank Museum, it provides free service to you, its visitors. (Original) Geçmişin izlerini günümüze taşıyan, Osmanlı döneminden kalma görkemli yapılardan bir miras daha… Yeni Cami Hünkar Kasrı. Birçoğumuzun günün koşturmacası içinde fark etmeden önünden belki defalarca geçtiğimiz bir yapı ama girip görülmelik, seyredilmelik. Sedef kakmalı kapıları, rengarenk vitraylı camları, İznik çinileri ile süslü duvarları… Hepside birbirinden değerli ve özel. Yukarıda da bahsettiğim gibi birçok İstanbullu’nun belkide önünden defalarca geçtiği bir yapı burası. Eminönü’nde .“Bankalar Sokağı” nda, İş Bankası Müzesi’nin karşısında, Eminönü’nün tarihi Yeni Cami‘sinin sırasında yer alıyor. Dışardan iki katlı gibi görünen yapıda girişte sizi uzun dik bir taşlık karşılıyor. 17. yüzyıl Osmanlı Mimarisi’nin izlerini yansıtan bu görkemli yapıya girdiğimizde bizi günümüzde genelde sergi alanı olarak kullanılan bir taşlık karşılıyor. Hafif bir yokuş olarak devam eden taşlığın sonu yaşam alanına açılıyor. Sedef kakmalı kündekari kapının ardında tarihin kokusunuda hissetmeye başlıyorsunuz. Zengin işlemeleri ile mavinin güzelliğine sizleri kaptıran değerli İznik çinileri ve ayetler ile kaplı duvarları, vitraylı camları, döşemeleri, sedirleri, duvarlardaki işlemeleri ile büyüleniyorsunuz. Üç tane odaya sahip olan bu yapıda en görkemli olanı Baş Oda. Girişte tam karşınızda olan bu oda dönemin eşyaları ile dekore edilmiş. Ahşap oyma tavanın muhteşem kalem işleriyle süslendiği oda, üzerinde ayetler bulunan İznik çinileri ile kaplanmış. Odaların içinde bulunan çini kaplı ocaklarda mimariye ayrı bir güzellik katmış. “L” şeklinde ki sofanın uç kısmı ise Valide Sultan Dairesi’ne açılıyor. Baş Oda’nın yanındaki koridorda bir de tuvalet ve banyo yer alıyor. Dönemin izlerini yansıtan ibrikler, takunyalar, şamdanlar ise banyo (hamamlık) bölümünü süslüyor. Hünkar Kasrı, 17. yüzyılda Kanuni Sultan Süleyman’ın torunu, 3. Murat’ın eşi Safiye Sultan tarafından yaptırılmıştır. Kasrın yapılış amacı, Padişah ve ailesinin Yeni Cami’ye ibadet için geldiklerinde özelliklede kandil gibi özel gün ve gecelerde, namaz öncesi ve sonrasında dinlenmek, ibadet etmek ve konaklamak amaçlıdır. Bu nedenle Yapıdan Yeni Cami Külliyesi’ne bir de geçiş verilmiştir. Günümüzde yapıya dışardan baktığımızda da Yeni Cami arasındaki bağlantı görülmektedir. İstanbul Ticaret Odası’nın 2004 yılında başlattığı restorasyon çalışması ile 4 yılda düzenlenmesi ve yenilenmesi tamamlanarak müze olarak siz ziyaretçilerini beklemektedir. Günümüzdede kasrın taşlık bölümü her ayın ikinci perşembe günü farklı farklı sergilere ev sahipliği yapmaktadır. Yeni Cami Hünkar Kasrı, 2010 Europe Nostra ( Avrupa Birliği Kültürel Mirasın Koruma) ödülünü de almıştır.İstanbul Ticaret Üniversitesi’nin restore ederek, ziyarete açtığı bu tarihi yapıyı ücretsiz olarak gezebilirsiniz. Aynı zamanda ufak bir tavsiye olarak buraya kadar gelmişken caddenin karşısında yer alan tarihi İş Bankası’nın bugün, İş Bankası Müzesi olarak hizmet veren binasını da gezmenizi öneririm. Üstelik İş Bankası Müzesi’de siz ziyaretçileri için ücretsiz olarak hizmet vermekte.

It is strategically located near the two most famous mosques in Istanbul. You cannot visit Istanbul without making it here. You will find ice cream, chestnuts, and your usual cafes here. Lots of police presence so everyone behaves. It is close to most of the attractions in Istanbul.

Loads of history surrounding this square plus the hustle and bustle of life going on, it is a must see place in Istanbul. Close to the popular mosques and also walking distance from the Underground Cistern and Grand Bazaar. You could spend quite a bit of time in the area. Plus there are loads of cafes and restaurants if you need something to eat or drink as they are close by too.

The Square is a central point to a few attractions such as the Sultanahmet Mosque (AKA Blue Mosque), the Aya-Sofia Museum, and the Islamic Museum. The square is served with many kiosks that sell snacks and drinks, in addition to seating areas. The place can be crowded with people. The place has no entrance fee. Very close to it is the Sultanahmet Park, Aya-Sofia, and the Topkapi Palace.

I love the atmosphere day and night. Families gathered together making picnic, playing, laughing, buses going everywhere and trams as well. You have cash points and the tourist police 24/7. You can snack on some sweetcorn (5TL) or chestnuts (10TL to 30 TL) which are delicious. As you sit down to watch your environment, people selling water(1TL), tea or coffee will offer everyone for 3TL. One evening as I was sitting on a bench drinking tea, I was approached by a 25 year old man, he started to talk very respectfully so I didn't mind a conversation until he started to flirt. Perfect if that is what you are looking for. I have seen some Turkish guys pretending to be Spanish which I am, to a Korean tourist trying to take him for drinks. It was a bit strange and I would be careful. If you have any problems, talk to the police, present all over the square. Amazing restaurants offering homemade Turkish food for around 32TL (food, drink and bread). The restaurant is called Can. Other similar ones along the tram line.

Sultanahmet Square is very fun, I like sitting there and looking at people walking there and taking pics. Some events happen there like the one I will share along with this review, it's usually fun to be there. There are lots of gift shops and cafes, it even has a public rest room so don't worry about that

Beautiful square to relax and take in the sights. You can see the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia as well as many other historical buildings. There are many food vendors and a few outdoor restaurants around the perimeter.

Very beautiful place, one of Istanbul’s top spots and one of my favorites as well, it’s the place where the Hippodrome of Constantinople once was and it’s a place that’s surrounded with Istanbul’s most iconic spots, like Sultanahmet mosque, Hagia Sophia, Topkapı Palace, Basilica Cistern, etc…, it’s full with Istanbul’s famous kiosks that serves Corn, Chestnuts and Turkish Bagel(Simit).

A place where if you stay for half an hour, you meet people from all over the world. You can relax and socialize both day and night. You can go home with some great memories from the nearby sights.

Wonderful views, just in the middle between the Hagia Sophia & the blue mosque. Fountain Cantered in the garden. Istanbul big bus for touring pickup point as well. Take your yime there, relax & enjoy your time

Really good place to spend some time * Very crowded place on weekends and other holiday * Very big place spend with family, Children and friends * Lot of Bench or Chairs available to sit and relax * Near by Tram station is there so frequent transport available to Taksim square and other areas * Pleas note that they are not allowing inside during pray hours. So pls plan accordingly * Street Singers were performing music, singing and dancing * Bit carefull with strangers and pickpocket

I visited this place once and I thought it was beautiful. I don’t know how it is during week but on the weekend this square is very crowded. It’s a nice place to sit down for a few minutes and just enjoy the view and being in nature.

There is something quite grand about the square which makes walking through it an experience. There are lots of little distractions such as the obelisks and the German Fountain and the main fountain just before you reach Haya Sofia; simit sellers and corn on the cob sellers add extra flavours to your walk. Above all, it's a nice place to sit and take in the two main attractions within the square: Haya Sofia and the Blue Mosque (also known as the Sultanahmet Mosque). You can browse by some of the shops and cafes if you like and at night the whole area is transformed as everything is lit up. Amazing place.

I recently had the opportunity to visit the Sultanahmet Mosque, also known as the Blue Mosque. Situated just across from the Hagia Sophia Mosque, its location couldn't be more iconic. What truly impressed me was the ease of entry; we didn't have to endure long queues to step into the courtyard. This made our visit even more enjoyable, and we could fully appreciate the architectural beauty of this historic site.

This is a nice place to walk around and experience the multitude of historical landmarks that this area teems with. Guided tours in various languages are provided (organised in advance) and it is one of the must see sites of Istanbul.

Awesome atmosphere! My family and i really loved it here. We hang out and do people watching. Send postcard overseas at the nearby post booth. Kids chasing the pigeons. Had a hot grilled corn here.

I was there in the spring season. What I like most about this place is the tulips that are blooming in the gardens. Historical place but also has a romantic feel. The cleanliness of this area is maintained, even though there are many tourists passing by. There are several benches that you can sit on for a moment to unwind.

Un loc minunat pentru a te relaxa, sau pentru a face câteva poze cu Hagia Sophia și cu Moscheea Albastră. Interesant este că cele două sunt față în față, la perfecție! Zona este liniștită și curată, dar și bine păzită! Aproape peste tot sunt filtre, mai puțin dacă intri prin Arasta Bazar, unde ajungi chiar la Moscheea Albastră, acolo zona nu e prea păzită. Oricum, dacă sunteți cazați în zonă, merită să vă plimbați dimineața sau mai pe seară! ?

The Park is crowded with tourists, there are several restaurants and cafes around this area.one thing i don’t like it is difficult to reach the park due to crowding

I am giving it 5 stars because here while I was sitting down writing my postcard for my friends I was approached by a group of youth volunteers from Fateh town municipal. Friendly bunch of kids that have very good knowledge of the city and what to visit and eat. If it was not for them we would not have able to stumble upon a lookout point at the Asian side of Istanbul for a breathtaking sunset (Please see Çamlıca Hill review). You won’t missed out on these group of volunteers as they are all wearing blue and hangs around this park to help tourist. Thank you guys!

(Translated by Google) Under the lawns of this park are the ruins of the Zeuskippus bath. It was the oldest bathhouse in Constantinople. On May 11 each year, to celebrate the capital's birthday, the townspeople had the right to wash here for free. Fans came here from the Hippodrome during the break between races. On June 3, 713, the emperor Filippikos Vardanus was blinded here by conspirators, who, being a great lover of racing, washed in Zeskippos with the drivers. (Original) Под газонами этого парка находятся развалины бани Зевскипп. Это была древнейшая баня Константинополя. 11 мая каждого года, в ознаменование дня рождения столицы, горожане имели право мыться здесь бесплатно. Сюда приходили болельщики с Ипподрома в перерыве между забегами. 3 июня 713 года здесь был ослеплён заговорщиками император Филиппик Вардан, который, будучи большим любителем бегов, мылся в Зескиппе вместе с возницами.

Doğu roma imparatorluğu döneminin hipodromu, osmanlı imparatorluğu döneminin at meydanı olarak bilinir. Eliptik tarzda inşa edilen bu meydanın tam ortasında sütunlardan ve heykellerden oluşan bir ada vardır. Araç trafiğine kapalı olup çocuklar ve engellilerin gezmesi için uygun bir meydandır. İmparator justinyen dönemindeki nika ayaklanmasının gerçekleştiği ve 40-50 bin kişinin öldürüldüğü hipodrom burasıdır. Gününüzde, az da olsa hipodrom'un park içinde bulunan kalıntıları biraz dikkat edilebilirse görülebilir. 1965 yılına kadar idam cezalılarının infazları, gündüz vakti ibret alınsın diye halkın gözleri önünde gerçekleştirilmiştir. İdam edilenlerin, cansız bedenleri asırlık çınar ağaçlarında asılı halde bekletilmiştir. Günümüzde ise şenliklerin, önemli etkinliklerin ve ramazan ayı etkinlikerinin düzenlendiği bir alandır. Burayı ziyaret eden turistlerin çevreden kendilerine yaklaşarak, bir şeyler satma vaadinde bulunan kişilerle asla iletişim kurmamaları tavsiye edilir.

Nice place to relax

(Translated by Google) This beautiful fountain was built in 1728 in honor of Sultan Ahmet III. Due to its location on the square, the fountain is a place of attraction for Istanbulites and tourists. The story is everywhere: Sofia and the Blue Mosque. There are benches around the fountain, inviting you to relax in such beauty. It is always crowded here, even now during a pandemic. (Original) Построен этот красывый фонтан в 1728 году в честь султана Ахмета III. Благодаря своему расположению на площади, фонтан является местом притяжения стамбульцев и туристов. Куда голову не повернуть везде история: София и Голубая мечеть. Вокруг фонтана стоят лавочки манящие тебя отдохнуть в такой красоте. Здесь всегда многолюдно, даже сейчас во времена пандемии.

(Translated by Google) While the park between Hagia Sophia and Sultanahmet Mosques is full of flowers in every season, we now manage with its greenery. Sultanahmet will be more beautiful with the completion of its minarets under repair. With the opening of the Hagia Sophia Mosque to worship, a significant dynamism came to the environment. The mosque community replaced the tourists who did not come due to the epidemic. (Original) Ayasofya ve Sultanahmet Camilerini arasındaki park, her mevsim çiçeklerle bezeli iken, şimdi yeşiliyle idare ediyoruz. Tamirattaki minarelerinin tamamlanmasıyla Sultanahmet daha güzel olacak. Ayasofya Camiinin ibadete açılmasıyla çevreye önemli bir hareketlilik geldi. Salgın sebebiyle gelmeyen turistlerin yerini cami cemaati aldı.

Sultan Ahmad kuftacı very nice historical place that has a great delicious food

(Translated by Google) Beautiful area. The historical center, many monuments and famous mosques around the world, such as the Blue Mosque, St. Sophia Cathedral. (Original) Красива площа. Історичний центр, багато пам'ятників і відомих мечетей на увесь світ, як Голуба мечеть, Софіївський собор.

Such a historical place it’s amazing

(Translated by Google) You can say the area that is between the blue mosque and the Hagia Sophia mosque (Hagia Sophia) Nearby is Topkapi, that is, almost everything in one place, it is very convenient to visit all the sights in a couple of hours, this is certainly not in season, and when there are queues have to wait a little longer. In the evening it is very beautiful when everything is highlighted. By the way, there is a cistern near the basilica (underground reservoir) (Original) Можно сказать площадь которая находится между голубой мечетью и мечетью Айя София (собор святой Софии) Неподалеку находится Топкапы, то есть практически все в одном месте, очень удобно для посещения всех достопримечательностей за пару часов, это конечно не в сезон, а так когда есть очереди придется ждать побольше. Вечером очень красиво когда все подсвечивается. Кстати рядом находится цистерна базилика ( подземное водохранилище)

Nice place to spend time on

(Translated by Google) History of Hünkar Pavilion The Hünkar Pavilion was built in 17th century by the grandson of Suleiman the Magnificent, Safiye Sultan, the wife of the 3rd Murat. The purpose of the pavilion is to rest, worship and stay before and after prayer, especially on special days and nights, such as oil lamps, when the Sultan and his family come to the New Mosque for worship. For this reason, a transition was given to the New Mosque Complex from Yapı. Today, when we look at the building from the outside, the connection between the Yeni Mosque can be seen.  The restoration work initiated by the Istanbul Chamber of Commerce in 2004 has been completed and renewed in 4 years, and awaits its visitors as a museum. Today, the stony part of the pavilion hosts different exhibitions on the second Thursday of each month. Yeni Mosque Hünkar Pavilion also received the 2010 Europe Nostra (Protection of the European Union Cultural Heritage) award. (Original) Hünkar Kasrı’nın Tarihi Hünkar Kasrı, 17. yüzyılda Kanuni Sultan Süleyman’ın torunu, 3. Murat’ın eşi Safiye Sultan tarafından yaptırılmıştır. Kasrın yapılış amacı, Padişah ve ailesinin Yeni Cami’ye ibadet için geldiklerinde özelliklede kandil gibi özel gün ve gecelerde, namaz öncesi ve sonrasında dinlenmek, ibadet etmek ve konaklamak amaçlıdır. Bu nedenle Yapıdan Yeni Cami Külliyesi’ne bir de geçiş verilmiştir. Günümüzde yapıya dışardan baktığımızda da Yeni Cami arasındaki bağlantı görülmektedir.  İstanbul Ticaret Odası’nın 2004 yılında başlattığı restorasyon çalışması ile 4 yılda düzenlenmesi ve yenilenmesi tamamlanarak müze olarak siz ziyaretçilerini beklemektedir. Günümüzdede kasrın taşlık bölümü her ayın ikinci perşembe günü farklı farklı sergilere ev sahipliği yapmaktadır. Yeni Cami Hünkar Kasrı, 2010 Europe Nostra ( Avrupa Birliği Kültürel Mirasın Koruma) ödülünü de almıştır.

(Translated by Google) I will pass on my humble observations, since they are the ones who wrote their history: I had the opportunity to enter the New Mosque Hünkar Pavilion due to the exhibition held at the entrance. Thanks to the exhibition, I also visited the pavilion. The mother-of-pearl inlaid doors and the decorations on the dome of the main hall, which is located in the first right section when you enter the hall, are eye-catching. It is possible to visit one of the two rooms facing the mosque side, but neither the sea side nor the windows of the mosque side are open. One of the points I liked was the windowed wall part that divides the corridor into two. The fact that the windows are two floors resembles the system of today's double glazing, and can also transfer the light to the interior by providing an aesthetic appearance. Still, the airlessness of the pavilion is a bit disturbing, as portable ventilation devices were positioned, but what a remedy ?! Maybe, those who have the opportunity to visit in winter can be considered more lucky :) (Original) Tarihçesini yazanlar olduğundan, kendi naçizâne gözlemlerimi ileteceğim: Yeni Camii Hünkâr Kasrı'na, giriş kısmında yapılan sergi sebepli girme imkânım oldu. Sergi sayesinde kasrı da gezmiş bulundum. Sedef kakma kapılar ve holden girince ilk sağdaki bölümde bulunan ana salonun kubbesindeki işlemeler göz alıcı. Camii tarafına bakan iki adet odanın birisini ziyaret mümkün, lâkin ne deniz tarafı ne de camii tarafının pencereleri açık değil. Hoşuma giden noktalardan birisi ise, koridor kısmını ikiye ayıran pencereli duvar kısmı oldu. Pencerelerin iki kat olması, günümüz çift camlarının sistemini andırmakta adeta, hem de estetik bir görüntü sağlayarak ışığı da iç kısma aktarabilmekte. Yine de kasrın havasızlığı malum biraz rahatsız edici, ki portatif havalandırma cihazları konumlandırılmıştı ama ne çare?! Belki de, kışın gezme imkânı bulanlar daha şanslı sayılabilirler:)

(Translated by Google) I visited Gül Vardar Tezbora's beautiful and precious illumination and miniature exhibition and I liked it very much. I congratulate him for his fine, patience and craftsmanship. Unfortunately, I suggest you not to miss it if there is a repetition of the exhibition that I came across on your last day. The Hünkâr Pavilion building is just across the street from Eminönü as we got off the tram. Even facing the Is Bank Museum. (Original) Gül Vardar Tezbora'nın birbirinden güzel ve değerli Tezhip ve Minyatür sergisini gezdim ve çok beğendim. Tebrik ediyorum bu ince, sabır ve ustalık isteyen eserleri yaptığı için. Maalesef son gününe denk geldiğim serginin tekrarı olursa kaçırmamanızı öneririm. Hünkâr Kasrı binası Eminönü'nde tramvaydan indiğimiz gibi hemen karşınızda. Hatta İş Bankası Müzesi ile karşılıklı.

(Translated by Google) However, if there is an exhibition, it can be visited. Tiles are worth seeing. In some sections, there may be problems viewing the tiles due to direct sunlight. (Original) Ancak içinde sergi varsa gezilebiliyor. Çiniler görmeye değer. Bazı bölümlerde, direk gün ışığı gelen pencerelerden dolayı çinileri görüntülemekte problem olabiliyor.

High level one of the attraction place for Istanbul. If you are in Istanbul, this is the chance to see this place with your eyes. You can reach almost all the places around here by walking. Especially in spring and summer seasons much people visiting here. That why be careful for making route plan for this area. But I can say that every time very attractive. Have a good journey!

(Translated by Google) This is a wonderful little breath of fresh air and tranquility in the big city. This park left to us for a millennium is a little tranquility in the old center of Istanbul. It is between the Blue Mosque and the Hagia Sophia. From here you can compare Ottoman and Byzantine architecture. Visit it, you will not go wrong. (Original) Това е прекрасна малка глътка въздух и спокойствие в големия град. Този парк оставен ни от хилядолетие е малко спокойствие в стария център на Истанбул.

Wonderful place

All roads in Istanbul Lead to one, the Famous Sultanahmet Square is your personal concierge for history, gastronomy, shopping, arts and culture. Choose any and you won't be disappointed or rather choose all. The Sultanahmet Square has the world famous landmarks The Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia along with Topkapi Palace. A must visit place in Instanbul sadly the underground Basilica Cisterns were closed and under renovation.

Must seen in Istanbul:Aya Sofia, Blue mosque, Topkapi palace, Hippodrome. 1day is enough for this place so be ready to spend all day there. All restaurants nearby too expensive and touristic. Eat simit on the street between museums and after it go down to Eminonu where you can find many nice places where locals eat. After it visit Suleymaniye mosque complex which is close to Egypt bazaar in Eminonu.

Lovely city square. Great views of the Mosques. Restaurants and cafes very reasonably priced, no mark up for area. Friendly stray dogs abound, all tagged with food stations where you insert a coin and a portion of dried dog food drops out the bottom. Very impressed

I love this historical place. I love everything about it from mosques to restaurants, parks and hotels, shops and dogs who's playing big role in the park like a local residents.

so crowded during days, but still fantastic... at night it's one of the greatest places, after midnight you feel like you own this place, clean, quiet and romantic with cozy lights.. one of the places that i highly recommend to visit it during your stay in istanbul

Nice park in between The Sultan Ahmed Mosque (The Blue Mosque) & Aya Sofia.

One of the most iconic city squares in the world featuring true wonders of history, culture and architecture. Visit during the day, as well as by night to capture the incredible beauty at all times.

Beautiful area of old Istanbul....cosy to walk around with local families as well as tourists. Superb architecture, mosques, palace, museums and atmosphere. Can be crowded at times of course but really cosy. Not to missed!

Awesome experience.. loved the vibe. Restaurants offering delicious food.. visit to Blue Mosque was the best feeling.

Sultanahmet Square is a historical public area located in the heart of Istanbul, Turkey. It is home to some of the city's most iconic landmarks, including the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia and the Basilica Cistern. The square is a popular destination for tourists and locals alike, with its stunning architecture, vibrant markets, and delicious street food. Visitors can also enjoy a picturesque view of the Bosphorus Strait and the city's skyline. Sultanahmet Square is a must-visit destination for anyone interested in history, culture, and architecture.

It is felt at every step that the square is a very historical place. At every step, tourists from all over the world come to see this place and monuments, and their admiration is clearly felt. Those who want to travel through history should definitely come here and you can't leave without visiting the Sultanahmet Mosque.

I have zero interest in any form of religion. However, this is a wonder to behold from an architecture or engineering point of view.

It is beautiful and spacious. You're surrounded in brilliant history, beautiful culture and architecture. Highly recommend. I was there early in the day. There were no crowds and it was fantastic.

Definitely a must see in Istanbul! Entrance is free. Waiting lines are long, but waiting time is ok.

Amazing mosques to visit. Amazing museums full of history and ottoman empire

Love the place with beautiful view of the blue mosque. The Sultanahmet Square (Sultanahmet Meydani) is the old historic quarter of Istanbul and here you will find some of the most significant historic monuments of Istanbul. The district was named after Sultan Ahmet I, the builder of the Blue Mosque which sits at one end of the leafy square. Facing the Blue Mosque at the opposite end of the square is the magnificent Hagia Sophia.

Sultanahmet Square has many Historical Buildings arround like Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palace. Also Hippodrome located center of Sultanahmet square and you can see German fountain and other monuments. It is like open air museum.

Incredible and historical place. Would love to visit it again. Istanbul is a very beautiful city but I recommend other visitors to use Metro pass rather than a taxi. One day I took to European side of Istanbul to visit Sultanahmet Palace, where I paid 70 Turkish Lira for a taxi. On my way back to Asian side from Sultanahmet I made an agreement of 100 Turkish Lira, one taxi but there was a guy sitting next to a driver. I thought they were friends! Firstly they refused to drop me at my hotel and secondly they stopped me around a dark corner of the street. Thirdly I couldn’t communicate with them because they couldn’t speak English. I was a bit scared with those people. I had to pay 180 Turkish Lira including bridge taxes. I had only 100 Turkish Lira left. I asked taxi driver to exchange Euro to Lira. Taxi driver made me so confused by showing me both Lira and Euro that I didn’t notice when they steal my 100 Euro beside taxi charge. 100 Euro is less important for me than to feel safe when I was in a foreign country. Very unfair and uncomfortable experience I had ever experienced in my life. So please be careful with a taxi if there is a extra guy sitting next to a taxi driver!

At the Sultan Ahmet square you can visit the blue mosque, which is free, currently undergoing renovation. Opposite to the mosque is Hagia Sofia museum which has an entry fees of 72 Lira, totally worthwhile. Better to watch tour guide YouTube videos prior to visiting these places.

This is a must visit place if you are in Istanbul. It’s vibrant and diverse and a hub for tourists from all around the world and a centre for historical landmarks Blue mosque, Hagia Sofia and others. Lots of food to relish and not far from the bazaars if you want to do some authentic shopping. The square is easily accessible by tram if you are not staying in one of the many nearby hotels. A lovely experience I visited like three times once at night and it always had a unique exquisite atmosphere to it and a perfect spot for memorable pictures ♡ must visit again ♡

Hipodrom, tarihte ilk olarak Antik Yunan ve Roma medeniyetlerinde görülen, atlı sporların yapıldığı stadyum, koşu yolu. Geçmişte hem at hem de atlı araba yarışları için kullanılan bu alanlar, günümüzde sadece önemli bir şans oyunu olan at yarışları için kullanılmaktadır. Ayrıca hipodrom sözcüğü artık yalnız koşu pisti için değil aynı zamanda atların ahırlarını da içeren tüm spor tesisi için kullanılmaktadır.

Sultanahmet Meydanı şahane

(Translated by Google) Important structures and monuments of the Byzantine period, of which very few remains remain today, were built around the Hippodrome. The Imperial Palace known as the "Great Palace" used to start near the Hippodrome and stretch down to the seaside. The floor mosaic panel of a large hall has survived from this Palace to the present day. The most important square in the city was Agusteion and between this place and the street was the Milerium triumphal arch. The street was the beginning of the road to Rome and the first milestone was here. Baths, temples, religious, cultural, administrative and social centers were located in this area. The district maintained its central importance in the Byzantine and Turkish periods. The most important monuments of Istanbul, Hagia Sophia, Sultan Ahmet Mosque, Turkish and Islamic Arts Museum, Basilica Cistern are here, around the Hippodrome. The main streets of the city (those going down to the lower harbor and going west towards the city walls) would start from the Hippodrome and follow the slopes. The roadsides were surrounded by commercial establishments and residences. The side roads were narrow and some ran downhill with steps. The main road sidewalks were sometimes built with two floors and galleries. (Original) Günümüze çok az kalıntıları kalan Bizans devri önemli yapıları ve abideleri Hipodrom çevresinde inşa edilmişti. “Büyük Saray” diye bilinen İmparatorluk Sarayı Hipodromun yanından başlar, aşağılara, deniz kenarına kadar uzanırdı. Bu Saraydan günümüze bir büyük salonun yer mozaik panosu gelebilmiştir. Şehrin en önemli meydanı Agusteion ve burası ile cadde arasında Milerium zafer takı bulunurdu. Cadde, Roma’ya kadar uzanan yolun başlangıcı idi ve ilk kilometre taşı da buradaydı. Hamamlar, mabetler, dini, kültürel, idare ve sosyal merkezler bu civara yerleşmişlerdi. Semt Bizans ve Türk devirlerinde de merkezi önemini devam ettirmiştir. İstanbul’un en önemli abideleri Ayasofya, Sultan Ahmet Camii, Türk ve İslam Eserleri Müzesi, Yerebatan Sarnıcı burada, Hipodromun çevresindedir. Şehrin ana caddeleri (aşağı limana inen ve batıya şehir surlarına doğru gidenler) Hipodromdan başlar ve yamaçları takip ederdi. Yol kenarları ticari kuruluşlar ve ikâmetgâhlarla çevrili idi. Yan yollar dar ve bazıları basamaklarla yokuş aşağı uzanırlardı. Anayol kaldırımları bazen iki katlı, galerili inşa edilmişlerdi.

Peaceful square with view on Sultanahmet and Hagia Sophia

Always great to be back here. Beautiful views and so much grandeur and beauty in the historical buildings and artifacts in the area. A must see place in Istanbul.

Great place to walk, amazing cafes, prices are OK for being the main square of such a big city.

If weather is nice outside, sitting there in the night and having a grilled corn is a great time. with hagia sophia in front of you and the blue mosque in the rear.

If this wasn't so close to Hagia Sophia and Sultanahmet mosque, it shouldn't be on any travellers bucket list. Really nothing special, utterly unimpressed

It wasn't too much crowded but Hagia Sophia have a tail :) because of coronavirus turizm was affected i really don't want to see this days

Great meeting and relaxing point. Very picturesque with easy access to food & drink.

Good historical heritage and have lots of sightseeing :) If you come to Istanbul, You should visit!

(Translated by Google) Important structures and monuments of the Byzantine period, which have very few remains to this day, were built around the Hippodrome. The Imperial Palace known as the "Great Palace" used to start next to the Hsdipodrome and stretch down to the seaside. The floor mosaic panel of a buhjyük hall has survived from this Palace. The important square of the city, Agusteion, and between this place and the street, there used to be the Mausoleum triumphal arch. The street was the beginning of the road to Rome and the first milestone was here. Baths, temples, religious, cultural, administrative and social centers were located in this area. Seasdmt maintained its central importance in Byzantine and Turkish periods. The most important monuments of Istanbul, Hagia Sophia, Sultan Ahmet Mosque, Turkish and Islamic Arts Museum, Yerebatan Saasdrnıcı is here, around the Hippodrome. The main streets of the city (those going down to the lower harbor and going west towards the city walls) would start from the Hippodrome and follow the slopes. They used to go down the stairs with the roadside. The main road sidewalks were sometimes built with two floors and galleries. (Original) Günümüze çok az kalıntıları kalan Bizans devri önemli yapıları ve abideleri Hipodrom çevresinasdde inşa edilmi şti. “Büyük Saray” diye bilinen İmparatorluk Sarayı Hsdipodromun yanından başlar, aşağılara, deniz kenarına kada uzanırdı.

Sultanahmet square is one of my favorite places to be at in Istanbul. Have a seat at one of the many benches and enjoy the beauty of the Hagia Sophia on the one side and the blue mosque on the other side. When you enter from the tram to the square, there is a security control by the police where you need to show your bag and possibly be searched yourself. But there is no security check when coming from other sides such as Topkapi.

Сейчас из-за карантина площадь обнесена временными ограждениями и оставлены КАП, где полиция досматривают сумки и измеряет температуру.

(Translated by Google) In our list named "Eminönü Gülhane Line Conquest in 17 Steps" that we prepared before, it started from Eminönü and went to Gülhane Park; but we did not cross the road and enter Sultanahmet Square, and we left it for another day to tell about it and the environment that is a part of the Historical Peninsula. Now, we invite you to visit these historical places by saying that these days, when Ramadan entertainment is held, is the right time. Here you go to visit Sultanahmet Square and its surroundings. 1. Hippodrome or Horse Square hippodrome-at-square-listelist The known history of Sultanahmet Square, which is one of the first and most crowded places of Istanbul, visited by local and foreign tourists, dates back to the Romans. This square, which was used as a hippodrome during the Roman Empire and the Byzantine Empire, continued its importance until the 10th century as the meeting, entertainment, excitement and sports center of the city. In addition to car races, musician groups, belly dancers, acrobats, fighting shows with wild animals were always held here. The Imperial Palace known as the "Great Palace" starts near the Hippodrome and stretches down to the seaside. Only one floor mosaic panel of the great hall has survived from this Palace. 2. Circumcision Weddings and the Square of Revolts sunnet-weddings-square of revolts During the Ottoman Empire period, circumcision ceremonies and festivities of the prince that lasted for forty days and forty nights were held in Sultanahmet Square, which is called Horse Square, and the janissary revolts also took place in this region. In the 17th century, after a military uprising known as Vaka-i Vakvakiye, people sentenced to death by the rebels were hung from the branches of a large plane tree in the Horse Square. In addition, Halide Edip made his famous speech in this square in the great rally against the occupation in Istanbul in 1920. (Original) Daha önce hazırladığımız “17 Adımda Eminönü Gülhane Hattı Fethetme Rehberi” adlı listemizde Eminönü’nden başlayıp Gülhane Parkı’na kadar gitmiş; ama yolun karşısına geçip Sultanahmet Meydanı’na girmemiş, orayı ve Tarihi Yarımadanın bir parçası olan çevreyi anlatmayı bir başka güne bırakmıştık. İşte şimdi, ramazan eğlencelerinin yapıldığı şu günler, tam zamanıdır deyip sizi bu tarihi mekanları gezmeye davet ediyoruz. Buyrun, hep birlikte Sultanahmet Meydanı ve çevresini gezmeye. 1. Hipodrom veya At Meydanı hipodrom-at-meydani-listelist İstanbul’un yerli ve yabancı turistlerce ilk gezilen ve en kalabalık yerlerinden olan Sultanahmet Meydanının bilinen tarihi Romalılara kadar uzanır. Roma İmparatorluğu ve sonrasındaki Bizans İmparatorluğu devrinde hipodrom olarak kullanılan bu meydan, bugün de olduğu gibi şehrin toplantı, eğlence, heyecan ve spor merkezi olarak 10.yüzyıla kadar önemini sürdürmüş. Araba yarışları yanında, müzisyen toplulukları, dansözler, akrobatlar, vahşi hayvanlarla kavga gösterileri hep burada yapılırmış. “Büyük Saray” diye bilinen İmparatorluk Sarayı Hipodromun yanından başlar, aşağılara, deniz kenarına kadar uzanırmış. Bu Saraydan günümüze sadece büyük salonun bir yer mozaik panosu gelebilmiş. 2. Sünnet Düğünleri ve İsyanların Meydanı sunnet-dugunleri-isyanlarin-meydani Osmanlı İmparatorluğu döneminde ise kırk gün kırk gece süren şehzade sünnet düğünleri, şenlikler At Meydanı denilen Sultanahmet Meydanında yapılır, yeniçeri isyanları da bu bölgede gerçekleşirmiş. 17.yüzyılda çıkan ve Vaka-i Vakvakiye diye bilinen askeri bir ayaklanma sonunda, isyancılar tarafından ölüme mahkûm edilen kişiler At Meydanı’nda bulunan büyük bir çınar ağacının dallarına asılmış. Ayrıca İstanbul’da 1920 yılında işgale karşı yapılan büyük mitingde, Halide Edip de o ünlü konuşmasını bu meydanda yapmıştır.

You should be here in the evening. My visit was in March, so it was cold, and only 10 people were here at 7 pm. You can easily make a good photos if you want, or just take a hot corn, seat on bench and enjoy great views - Hagia Sofia or Blue Mosque.

This is wonderful historical site to visit

Best place in the square for the photos.

(Translated by Google) Stop for a moment in front of this large pool of beautiful blue. Sultan Ahmad Maydan Fountain is located next to Sultanahmet Square. The approximate translation means Fountain of the Sultan Ahmad Esplanade. But since there has never been a Sultan Ahmad in Turkey, I suppose it was Sultan Ahmed III who reigned from 1703 to 1730. He had made a sebil, a public fountain to provide drinking water to travelers and running water for ritual needs: ablutions. As soon as the sun sets, the jet fountain is lit up with Sainte-Sophie in the background. It's sumptuous. It’s good to walk in this big park where the lighting brings out the monuments that surround it at night. Your look at 360 ° will make you perceive the quantity of historical monuments that surround you. (Original) Arrêtez-vous un moment devant ce grand bassin d’un beau bleu. Sultan Ahmad Maydan Fountain est située à côté de la place Sultanahmet. La traduction approximative signifie Fontaine de l’esplanade Sultan Ahmad. Mais comme il n’y a jamais eu de Sultan Ahmad en Turquie, je suppose qu’il s’agit du Sultan Ahmed III qui régna de 1703 à1730. Il avait fait réaliser un sebil, une fontaine publique pour fournir de l'eau potable aux voyageurs et de l'eau courante pour les besoins rituels : les ablutions. Dès le coucher de soleil, la fontaine à jets est illuminé avec en arrière-plan Sainte-Sophie. C’est somptueux. Il fait bon se promener dans ce grand parc ou l’éclairage fait ressortir dans la nuit les monuments qui l’entourent. Votre regard à 360° vous fera percevoir la quantité de monuments historiques qui vous cernent.

(Translated by Google) Sultanahmet Square (Turkish: Sultanahmet Meydanı) was the hippodrome in Constantinople during the Roman Empire and was at that time a social center of the city and a place for sports. Today, it is a square called Sultan Ahmed Square and is located in the Turkish city of Istanbul. The square was organized as if it were a park, but now it has acquired a view indicating its history. There are shops in which artists display their art and which are erected especially during the blessed month of Ramadan in the square opposite the Turkish Islamic Museum with small domes to give it an Ottoman look. In 2011, 17 million Turkish liras were allocated for its restoration. (Original) ميدان السُلطان أحمد (بالتركية: Sultanahmet Meydanı) كان ميدان سباق الخيل في مدينة القسطنطينية في عهد الإمبراطورية الرومانية وكان في ذلك الحين يمثل مركزاً اجتماعياً للمدينة ومكان للرياضات. أما اليوم فهو ساحة تسمى بميدان السلطان أحمد ويقع في مدينة إسطنبول التركية.[1]كانت الساحة تستعمل كساحة لسباق الخيول في العهد البيزنطي وقد أجريت فيها الكثير من سباقات الخيول والعروض الرياضية والاحتفالات في العصر العثماني أيضا. وكانت الساحة قد نظمت وكأنها منتزه ولكنها الآن اكتسبت منظرا يدل على تاريخها. وتوجد محلات التي يعرض فيها الفنانون فنهم والتي يتم نصبها خاصة في شهر رمضان المبارك في الساحة المقابلة للمتحف الإسلامي التركي بقباب صغيرة لتعطي لها مظهرا عثمانيا. وفي عام 2011 تم تخصيص مبلغ 17 مليون ليرة تركية لإعادة ترميمها.

(Translated by Google) It is the square that joins La Mézquita 🕌 Azul and La Mézquita Santa Sofia, in the center there is a very nice pool that at night has colored lights. It is a very safe sector, the police are always guarding the security and it is also a central meeting point, since it is next to the Sultanahmet metro station and that is very convenient to get to. It also has a bus stop that is tourist of Istanbul.

(Translated by Google) Sultanahmet, which is the administrative and living center of the Ottoman Empire and named after Sultan Ahmet I, can also be called the historical heart and center of Istanbul. Sultanamhet is also the first hill of Istanbul with seven hills. When Sultanahmet is mentioned, the first things that come to mind as historical monuments and places to visit; Topkapi palace, The Hagia Sophia Mosque, Sultan Ahmet Mosque, The pyramid, fountain and columns in the square, Turkish and Islamic Arts Museum, Istanbul Archaeological Museums, Great Palace Mosaics Museum, Basilica Cistern. Since Sultanahmet Square and its immediate surroundings are an area closed to vehicle traffic, and the attractions here are very close to each other, you can easily visit every place in Sultanahmet on foot. You can also use the tram if you want to go to Eminönü and Beyazıt sides. One of the most popular activities to do in Sultanamhet is to feel the historical texture and atmosphere by taking a classic stroll and walk in Sultanahmet Square, and to visit the surrounding mosques, museums, fountains and historical artifacts. (Original) Osmanlı İmparatorluğu’nun yönetim ve yaşam merkezi olan ve adını da Sultan I.Ahmet’ten alan Sultanahmet, aynı zamanda İstanbul’un tarihi kalbi ve merkezi olarak da adlandırılabilir. Sultanamhet, aynı zamanda yedi tepe İstanbul’un birinci tepesi konumunda. Sultanahmet denilince tarihi eserler ve gezip görülecek yerler olarak ilk akla gelenler; Topkapı Sarayı, Ayasofya Camii, Sultanahmet Camii, Meydandaki piramit, çeşme ve sütunlar, Türk ve İslam Eserleri Müzesi, İstanbul Arkeoloji Müzeleri, Büyük Saray Mozaikleri Müzesi, Yerebatan Sarnıcı. Sultanahmet meydanı ve yakın çevresi araç trafiğine kapalı bir alan olduğundan, aynı zamanda burada bulunan gezilecek yerler birbirlerine çok yakın bir mesafede olduğundan, Sultanahmet’te her yeri yürüyerek rahatlıkla gezebilirsiniz. Eminönü ve Beyazıt tarafına gitmek isterseniz de tramvayı kullanabilirsiniz. Sultanahmet meydanında klasik bir gezinti ve yürüyüş yaparak tarihi dokuyu ve atmosferi hissetmek, çevredeki camileri, müzeleri, çeşmeleri ve tarihi eserleri gezip görmek, Sultanamhet’te yapılacak en popüler aktivitelerden.

Beautiful sqaure with palm trees and a fountain inbetween the Blue Mosque and the Hagia Sofia. Well worth visiting at sunset for photos of these two amazing buildings.

Beautiful place Very clean and well maintained Must visit place for tourist Surrounded by all the most important places in Istanbul The square has a large fountain in the middle which lights up at night Surrounded by lots of seating People come here for picnic or spend the evening The square is connected by major roads which take you to different part of the city Taxis are not allowed in this area but you can get a tram or bus The big bus also starts from this point Highly Recommended to stay in this area so that all the attractions are easily accessible I would spend the whole day at the square

Pretty and crowded place, also bc of Corona lots of fences and police, if you want to go inside the mosk you need long pants (male) and dress and headscarf (female) worth the visit.

Very nice place you can enjoy it, My visit was on Sunday that's why it was crowded little bit but still i enjoyed

Walking through here is surreal, walking between two beautiful monuments is nothing close to what you could possibly imagine

Wow... Can't put it into different words. Definitely one of the greatest spots I've ever been

Beautiful place. Shows the vision of the Ottoman empire's architects even 4-5 centuries ago. You need atleast a day and a half to fully explore Sultan Ahmet

Great Viewing spot for pictures of two iconic Mosque.

Very beautiful and well maintained. You are asked to wear respectable clothing which is good. They give you free scarfs if you don't have any

Nice park with spectacular views of both the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sofia. Great place to relax.

Beautiful place to sit and relax in the evening.

nice place to set

Nice place to chill and stare at the magnificent mosque

Very nice place.. Full of joy..

Nice square You able to visit tourist attractions area

Beautiful place, recommended to any one who needs a place to experience old Cultures!

A fantastic experience it's amazing that you can see 2 great mosques next to each. To see more photos please visit my Instagram page @scottstravelphotos

Very famous Place in Istambul Turkey. In these large area is under re construction. So only a few parts are available to visit and Pray

First of I don't have any idea about this place. But as a lonely tourist better avoid any company if you feel uncomfortable. Roaming this using Google maps help only 60% coz in satilite view barely can see streets. So all you need is to follow big tourist group. One day is enough for site seeing.

This is one of the most famous touristic places in turkey, you will find almost all nationalities of the world walking around, great landscapes for photos, eating cemit and turkish tea.

Just stay at the park and look at Blue Mosque and Hagia Sofia. You will feel like your are in the center of the world.

Check this area out when you’re here for the mosque. A lot of tourists and good food options around. Lovely area

Very nice place, and you enjoy setting there many hours

An awesome historical aria , must go and visit

Another must see in İstanbul, wonderful historical monuments, great gift shops and lovely food.

Beautiful area with lots of shops and restaurants nearby, walking distance to Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia, clean and well maintain area

It was sunny and hot in the mid of August. But it's a nice place to eat snacks and enjoy the view

Best Place in Istanbul. Must Visited place if you go to Istanbul. Turkish Donut and Ice-cream must try.

Beautiful historical place.we enjoy ISTANBUL trip.weather was too good.we visit many historical places in ISTANBUL.we will repeat our trip for Turkey very soon.

Nice place between Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque, where to sit down and rest after a hectic day, running around and exploring museums.

Very nice park surrounded by the two iconic landmarks of Istanbul Ayasofia and the Blue mosque.

Beautiful place to sit and relax specially during the evenings in the pleasant weather with a view of the Blue mosque. There are benches all across for seating.

Must visit while in Istanbul. The hippodrome, Hagia Sofia and Blue mosque make an amazing view. Good to hangout by day and night alike.

Historical, Islamic. Women who are not covered are asked to buy Hijab and asked to be fully covered. At somedays it gets more crowded than usuaal. But we were able to enter to the mosque easily

You cannot miss this square, as it is centered between the Hagia Sofia and Blue Mosque. The square is super lively and you can't get bored with the spectacular views of the Blue Mosque. Also the best place to relax, eat some simit and people watch.

Istanbul is a beautiful city. Fantastic calm scenery of Sultan Ahmed Mosque (Blue Mosque) and Hagia Sophia. ❤️🇹🇷🕌

It shows how the culture is, it has a lot of plants, you see the people from Turkey and also a bunch of tourist. You can take some pictures, but a corn and bread on the street food cars. The Mosques are beautiful and their are close by each other. It’s a great place to know more about the culture and the religion.

This is the patk that stretches from Hagia Sophia to the blue mosque. It is one of most iconic in Istanbul. You can see both landmarks. Many other landmarks scattered here and there. Very clean and maintained. Many seatings. Many trollies selling corn, drinks and so on. I liked the fact that there is free Wifi here too.

This a huge square and also called as sultanahmet Square. Many monuments, mosque and museum surrounds here. The one tall standing monuments looks like one in Washington DC claimed to be transported all the way from Egypt 🇪🇬 and took many years to install. This symbolise the importance and greatness of the king back then to have such tall monuments. Easy assess and you can also notify many ancient carving of the base stone too!

Sultanahmet Square lies between the famous Hagia Sophia and its twin building the Blue Mosque. I do love this place since it has also some historical sites such as obelisk from the 4th century CE and the German fountain. Uncountable street food stands with great delicacies are also available.

The heart of Istanbul. This square between the Aya Sofya and the Blue Mosque is the most popular tourist attraction. It's well maintained and beautiful. There are also plenty of cats roaming around.

Sultanahmet Square is the first place one visits while in Istanbul. It is a square with multiple monuments including the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. You will find multiple small Kiosks for snacks. You will also get to see Obelisks which have been brought from Egypt in Byzantine times. It is a beautiful square, and holds the history of Constantinople and Istanbul. It has been the center of the city for centuries.

Nice place to visit. Between 2 important monument. Sulthanamet Hagia Sofia.

Beautiful place filled with historical landmarks. I would recommend visiting on weekdays when it's less busy and be wary of the restaurant/cafe's here that are way overpriced.

Must visit. Do not miss this one lol. It’s a no brainer. You’ll love this square. You can easily spend half a day on the square itself.

Sultanahmet square is beautiful and holds the world's best monuments, and pleasure to walk and feel the history of hundreds of years of the past

Sultanahmet Square is a fantastic place in Istanbul, Turkey. It has beautiful buildings like the Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, and the Basilica Cistern. The square is always busy with people, and the atmosphere is lively. I loved exploring Sultanahmet Square and experiencing a rich history and stunning architecture.

Visited last week, was a part of a group tour.... Turkish summers are the worst for walking around the entire area. The entire group was made to walk from 9am till 5pm after which everybody was super exhausted and dehydrated. The guide took us to hagia sophia, blue mosque, topkapi Palace and grand bazaar. I personally felt that the place is overrated. I suppose it would have been better had the weather been cooler and we would've visited each place on a different day instead of all places in one day.

Well if u are staying near by you will have local market, great restaurants,tram, blue mosque and hagia sofa at your disposal at all times.Evenings are very nice there with light breeze and lot of hustle.good souvenir shops too.

Centuries of history concentrated in this square. The Blue Mosque, the Haghia Sofya Mosque and the Sultans' Topkapı Palace. You can spend your whole day here and still feel you need more time to inhale the centuries history was made here.

The hippodrome is also known as Sultanahmet square. It is located in the heart of Istanbul. It's a popular attraction as it's lies next to the Blue Mosque and Aya Sophia. In ancient time it used to be a sport event place or social centre but now it's all pedestrianised. 3 popular monuments which stands there is " The Serpent Column" which symbolises three snake tangled each other. Next one " Obelisk of Thutmose" which is still in good condition and main point of the hippodrome. Last one " Walles Obelisk" which is just a pillar made up of stone. It's a good place to walk around but ofcourse it doesn't look as how it was built.

The Hippodrome of Constantinople, was a circus that was the sporting and social centre of Constantinople, capital of the Byzantine Empire. Today it is a square in Istanbul, Turkey, known as Sultanahmet Square. The word hippodrome comes from the Greek hippos, horse, and dromos, path or way

Everything is mesmerising about this city "Istanbul"..so in love with the country TÜRKIYE..Will always be my most favourite destination..

This historical building is one of the most beautiful buildings built during the glory of the Ottoman Empire, which has preserved its splendor and beauty with dignity throughout history, and is an example of care and attention to historical buildings in Türkiye. Visiting this beautiful place and its surroundings is recommended to all those who travel to the beautiful city of Istanbul.
