Basilica Cistern Review

Worth going, but the fare is too expensive. Not only here, other sightseeing spots are also surprisingly expensive, even more expensive than tickets to attractions in Italy. After spending so much on the plane, I can only go in.

Amazing to see how the ancient Byzantine people built a place to store large amount of water underneath the city itself. A must visit place when you are in Istanbul

amazing place to see in istanbul! would recommend if you are interested in cool sights, history and unique experiences. although depending on what time you go you might have to wait in a long queue so definitely check that.

This is the largest of several hundred ancient cisterns that lie beneath the city of Istanbul. I went to this place last year.

In the era of reinforced concrete, such a underground pool was built. The dome structure of the mosque actually played a big role.
