Hippodrome Square is one of the larger parts of Sultanahmet Square, with many sights overlooking it. It is impossible to miss it when visiting Istanbul for the first time! The Greek name “Hippodrome” dates back to the Byzantine Empire - horse races were held in this square in the center of the city. Today it is a place for strolling.
The German Fountain (Alman Cesmesi) in Istanbul is a symbiosis of several architectural styles. Among the buildings of Ottoman architecture (Blue Mosque, Roxolana Baths, Aya Sofia Cathedral, mausoleum of Ahmed I), you will not see another one like it nearby. “Outlandish” for local places perfectly fit into the local color, became a symbol of friendship of world powers. The attraction still amazes everyone who sees it with its grandeur and beauty.
Sultanahmet Mosque (Sultanahmet Camii) is one of the most magnificent monuments of architecture in Istanbul. Later, the inhabitants of European countries gave the religious shrine a different name - Blue Mosque, which firmly established itself and today is on everyone's lips even more than the original name. Palace of Ibrahim Pasha - is a historical landmark and quite unusual for its time unique architectural monument of the XVI century.
