Yes. The building is magnificent and the design is wonderful, it is worth seeing. With a history of 1,500 years and a huge dome, it is one of the few Byzantine architectural representatives in the world and can be regarded as a monument to the heyday of the Byzantine Empire.

The view of the old city of Istanbul is so spectacular it's almost laughable. The view of Istanbul from the Suleymaniye Mosque is particularly spectacular and highly recommended. You have to climb a little hill, but it's definitely a must-visit spot!!

Mosques
馨宝很忙
The Blue Mosque is facing the Hagia Sophia. The two buildings are very close. You can complete the visit on the same day. The park in the middle is beautiful. You can sit and be tired. It is super comfortable! The murals in the mosque are beautiful, but there are many people. You need to take off your shoes when you go in. Many tourists go in with their shoes. The taste is a bit big. This is an important factor affecting the visit. So it is recommended to bring a mask. The smell of feet is still recommended to wash it next to you before entering. Or don't carry your shoes when you go in, and no one will take them in the cupboard next to you.

The sunset view of the Bosphorus is very beautiful. It is recommended to go to the Eminönü pier to take the turyol company cruise. Be sure to buy the sunset ticket 2 hours before sunset, then go to the nearby restaurants to enjoy the food and wait. The most basic pure tour is about 90 minutes, the boat fee is 150 lira (about 30), On board, there is no performance, no explanation, no food and drink, the boat is average. In fact, the most important thing is to take pictures and enjoy the sunset. There are many places of interest along the coast. You must not miss the Suleimaniyah Mosque and Dorma Bakhche Palace.

One of the busiest bazaars 🤩🥳 Feels like museum looking at fancy ornaments, spices and clothes. You can see the authentic culture heritage here. Worth visiting to see all the richness of Turkish culture and design. Of course as anywhere in the world keep safe and cautious 💪💪💪

"The old town of Istanbul is so spectacular that you can laugh, especially the city of Istanbul seen from the Suleimanie Mosque is a spectacular spot and highly recommended. It's a spot you should definitely go to! !!"

Dolmabahçe Palace
中西南北东
"This palace is worth a visit, at least half a day is needed, otherwise the ticket price is not worth it. However, the only regret is that photography is not allowed inside. I took a few photos secretly, but I was very nervous. You can take photos outside the palace. The Bosphorus is close at hand and the scenery is very good."
Istiklal Avenue
法国和福特
"Istanbul Riverside Road previously said that the Grand Bazaar is the big alley of Istanbul, and the Independence Street is the Istanbul Riverside Road. On the first day, I came to Taksim Square with a group tour and left us only an hour to stroll around. Of course we didn't go shopping enough, so we all set the time here the next day. We took the bus from the hotel to this neighborhood (it is said that Istanbul taxis are expensive and blocked, because the blockage will be more expensive, so we chose to take the bus) We went to the rainbow ladder first, and then walked through a residential area to the nearby Carrefour. In the middle, I also went into a drug store. The boss was very talkative. He said that he had been to many places in China, and he had even been to Tianjin and Hohhot. It was a mistake to go to Carrefour first. I bought a lot of things, which caused us to carry these things behind us. After buying snacks and souvenirs, I came to Independence Street. This street may be the busiest pedestrian street in Istanbul. There were a lot of people on the day we went. It can be seen that not only foreign tourists came to visit, but also locals came to go shopping. There are large and small shopping malls, restaurants, jewelry stores, souvenir shops, clothing stores, and the types of shops are very, very complete. We went to Pandora, mado, St. Anthony Church, baked potatoes, regular restaurant barbecue, street stall barbecue shop, candy shop, many clothing stores, Watsons, two shopping malls... I don’t know if I didn’t say it all, I went shopping for a whole day, it was dark before I went back, I bought a bunch of things, Also ate local specialty barbecue. Although I arranged on this street for a whole day and didn't go to other places, the various eating, drinking and shopping on this street was really rich. Although I was a little tired, I had a good time. Free travel was much better than eating with the group."
Taksim Square
携Cheng携Cheng
"Start of the pedestrian street We have to stay in Istanbul for two days, the first day is a group tour, the second day is a self-funded group or free travel. On the first day, we first came to Taksim Square. This square is a circular open space with some statues in the middle. But this square is also a relatively large square in Istanbul. There are a lot of pigeons in the square. Don't use others to feed, it is for money. Next to it is the pedestrian street, the square is the beginning of the pedestrian street. We arrived too early and many shops did not open. We came again the next day and went shopping. There are big shopping malls, small supermarkets, jewelry stores, Watsons, and various places to eat. The playability of the pedestrian street is still very strong."
Suleymaniye Mosque
sculptor
"The Suleimannier Mosque is the Royal Mosque of the Ottoman Empire, commissioned by Suleiman the Great more than 400 years ago. Behind the mosque's worship wall is the tomb of Suleiman the Great and his wife. The Suleimaniyah Mosque is one of the most famous attractions in Istanbul, Turkey, from its third mountain location overlooking the city around the Golden Horn Bay."
