After visiting the mosque, clock and palace parts in detail and listening to the history of this magnificent building from our guide, we set off to Ortakoy with our vehicle. The narrow organic street texture around Ortakoy Square; the lack of gardens in the buildings; bay windows and facade harmonies make the appearance of the environment different. The houses also show a difference arising from the social structure. The square and its surroundings are a lively meeting center day and night with cafes, nightclubs, bars, restaurants, art workshops, antique and souvenir shops, and a handicraft and art market on weekends. We taste “Kumpir“, a specialty of Ortaköy, and enjoy the view of the Bosphorus.

This large underground cistern, built by the Eastern Roman Emperor Justinian I (527-565), was popularly called “Basilica Palace” because of the numerous marble columns rising from the water. The structure, which is called “Cisterna Basilica” in Latin, is also referred to as the “Basilica Cistern” by some because there was a Stoa Basilica in the past. With its 80,000 tons of water storage capacity, the Basilica Cistern is the largest indoor cistern in the city and is notable for having more reclaimed structural elements than other indoor cisterns. Covering an area of approximately 10,000 m2, it is a huge rectangular structure with a length of 140 meters and a width of 70 meters.
