HAVE A NICE HOLIDAY

EXTRA TOURS / OPTIONAL 

Istanbul (denumit în trecut Constantinopol) este cel mai mare oras al Turciei si singurul oras din lume care a fost contruit pe doua continente. Orasul vechi se afla pe malul stramtorii Bosfor, care separa Europa de Asia si Marea Neagra de Marea Marmara. În ziua de azi, orasul este mult mai mare si acopera atat partea europeana, cat si cea asiatica. Desi nu mai este capitala Turciei, Istanbulul are o pozitie majora in economia si cultura tarii, fiind cel mai important centru de comert international al Turciei. Orasul este impartit intre Europa si Asia de stramtoarea Bosfor, de poduri frumoase si impresionante ca arhitectura.

Atractii turistice:

Moscheea albastra - Moscheea imperiala Sultanahmet, cunoscuta în toata lumea ca Moscheea Albastra din Istanbul, datorita placajelor decorative interioare din faianta bleu si alba, este cea mai mare si mai vizitata moschee din Istanbul. Ctitorita de Ahmet I, al XIV-lea sultan otoman, construcaia a fost realizata intre 1609-1616 de arhitectul Mehmet Aga, format la scoala arhitectului Sinan, cel mai renumit arhitect al Turciei. Mehmet Aga a construit moscheea atat cu scopul de a infatisa lumii ca si-a depasit maestrii, cat si ca tribut adus superioritatii islamului. Cele sase minarete ale sale aproape ca au produs o neintelegere majora, pentru ca erau la fel de multe cate moschei exista in Mecca. Interiorul moscheei este sculptat fin in marmura alba iar incantatoarele vitralii sunt colorate de razele soarelui. Mausoleul lui Soliman Magnificul si al sotiei sale, precum si mormantul lui Sinan se gasesc in gradinile acestei moschei.

Hagia Sophia (Sfanta Sofia) a fost catedrala Patriarhiei de Constantinopol, apoi moschee, astazi muzeu în Istanbul, Turcia. Este una dintre cele mai frumoase creatii arhitectonice din Turcia. Fondata de Constantin si reconstituita de Iustinian în secolul VI, biserica are un dom de 55 m inaltime si un diametru de 31 m. Traditia spune ca zona din jurul tronului imparatului era centrul oficial al lumii. Cladirea si-a primit forma finala in 537 sub împaratul Iustinian I. Era foarte importanta pentru Ortodoxismul timpuriu si pentru Imperiul Bizantin, fiind primul exemplu de arhitectura bizantina. Interiorul sau decorat cu mozaice, coloanele de marmura si acoperisul sunt de o mare importanta artistica. Sfanta Sofia este de fapt o basilica cu cupola; planul bazei fiind tot cel basilical. Se spune ca slujbele tinute în Sf. Sofia erau atât de grandioase incat participarea la una din aceste slujbe a determinat delegatia cneazului Vladimir I sa opteze pentru crestinarea rusilor de catre Patriarhia de Constantinopol.

Sultanul Mahomed, cuceritorul Constantinopolului a dat ordin ca Sfanta Sofia sa fie transformata în moschee. Legenda spune ca pe unul din peretii albi s-a pastrat amprenta palmei pline de sânge a sultanului.

Palatul Topkapi a fost comandat de catre sultanul Mehmet al doilea in 1459 si terminat în numai 6 ani. Este simbolul si centrul Imperiului Otoman, localizat între Cornul de Aur si Marea Marmara, cu o vedere superba asupra stramtorii Bosfor. Palatul este format din mai multe cladiri mici construite impreuna, cu curti intrioare impresionante si cu 4 zone importante inconjurate de ziduri inalte. In interior pot fi vazute: biserica Hagia Eirene, Museul de Arheologie, Haremul Imperial, Turnul Justitiei, pavilionul Sfintei Mantii (care contine ramasitele profetului Muhammad), pavilioane si gradini, grajduri si trezoreria.

Palatul Dolmabahce este considerat o copie a Palatului Versailles din Franta datorita asemanarii stilurilor arhitectonice. Palatul a devenit noua resedinta a sultanilor dupa Palatul Topkapi. Se întinde pe 600 de metri de-a lungul Bosforului. Imensa sala de receptie cu cele 56 de coloane si enorma lustra de patru tone si jumatate, cu cele 750 de becuri uimeste intotdeauna vizitatorii.

Hipodromul a fost construit de imparatul roman Septimiu Sever, insa cel care a facut din arena centrul public al orasului sau a fost Constantin. Au ramas trei monumente în Hipodrom: Obeliscul Theodosie, adus de Constantin din Egipt, Coloana Serpuita formata din trei serpi impletiti si Coloana lui Constantin Porfirogenetul.

Cornul de Aur este un estuar ce imparte orasul Istanbul in doua. Impreuna cu Marea Marmara, Cornul de Aur formeaza o peninsula cu un liman natural. Acest loc a fost ocupat la inceput de colonistii greci, la fel ca si Bizantul. Imperiul Bizantin isi avea sediul naval aici, si zidurile erau construite pe linia malului pentru a proteja orasul (pe atunci redenumit Constantinopol) de atacurile navale. la intrarea in Corn, exista un lant mare tras din Constantinopol spre fortareata Galata, in parte de nord, pentru a preveni intrarea vaselor nedorite.

Marele bazar - Istanbulul este paradisul celor pasionati de cumparaturi, el oferind produse pe gusturile tuturor. De la bazare si ateliere, care continua traditia strabuna la piete moderne si magazine imense, Istambulul ofera o gama variata de produse. De la Marele Bazar putem cumpara covoare traditionale turcesti si lucrari din aur si argint. In Piata Egipteana, dupa marea moschee, la piata Eminonu,ne intampina o atmosfera exotica si misterioasa,imbitata de parfumurile condimentelor aromatice si ale ierburilor. De la sirul de magazine ce inconjoara moscheea Sultanahmed putem achizitiona obiecte lucrate manual specific turcesti,in timp ce magazinele din muzeu ofera suveniruri care sa ne aduca aminte de intalnirea cu istoria Turciei.
