Durante la mañana llena de actividades, visitarás el Hipódromo, que data de la época romana, la legendaria Mezquita Azul, una de las obras maestras de la arquitectura otomana, Hagia Sophia…
Viaja a través de los siglos con esta visita guiada de medio día de cuatro de los lugares más conocidos de Estambul. Visitarás el Hipódromo, la legendaria Mezquita Azul, Santa Sofía y el Gran Bazar. Un itinerario fascinante que te dejará sin aliento en tan sólo cuatro horas.
Te recogeremos a tu hotel y te trasladaremos en el corazón del antiguo Bizancio. El primer monumento que visitaremos es la antigua Plaza del Hipódromo, actualmente plaza del Sultán Ahmet. Se utilizaba para actividades deportivas, carreras de carro y carreras de caballo, uno de los deportes más populares de la época; luchas de gladiadores y espectáculos de mímica. Varias rebeliones sangrientas tuvieron lugar aquí. Tres símbolos de interés turístico adornan el Hipódromo: el Obelisco de Teodosio, el Obelisco amurallado y la Columna Serpiente.
Desde el Hipódromo realiza un corto recorrido hasta la Mezquita Azul, la obra más famosa de la arquitectura otomana que destaca por su decoración interior con azulejos de Iznik. Un espectáculo para la vista desde el exterior. Mira hacia arriba y admira las cúpulas elaboradas.
Al otro lado de la plaza de la mezquita se encuentra la antigua basílica de Santa Sofía. Es el mejor ejemplo de arquitectura bizantina y dominó el horizonte de Constantinopla durante más de 1.000 años. La Mezquita Azul es conscientemente inspirada en ella. Esta iglesia enorme e imponente fue convertida en mezquita tras la conquista otomana, pero ha sido un museo desde 1930.
Terminaremos el tour en el vibrante y exótico Gran Bazar, el mercado cubierto más grande del mundo. Pasea por sus 61 calles y verás sus más de 3.000 puestos de venta.
Otros
Puesto que las mezquitas cierran los viernes, es día sólo se visitará el exterior. Cuando el Gran Bazar y Santa Sofía estén cerrados, (domingo y lunes, respectivamente), podrás visitar la Basílica Cisterna, una enorme cámara subterránea con el apoyo de 336 columnas de mármol que aparecen en una de las películas de James Bond.

The traditional Turkish Bath (HAMAM) is a bath culture which dates back around 1000 years. The main aim of the traditional peeling and Turkish massage (with foam), which is carried out in the HAMAM, is to clean skin, purify dead skin cells and to get rid of toxics which have built up in the body. These treatments also help the body to balance its’ blood pressure. The perfect way to get the body ready for a great tan, dressed in comfortable swimwear, lying on marble-heated benches, the bath begins with a relaxing loofah body scrub. This is followed by a smothering from head to toe in warm, soapy bubbles which are massaged all over the body to help get rid of those niggling aches and pains. Feeling squeaky clean and utterly relaxed by the end of it, this is a great way to switch straight into holiday mode.
