Known as the city of a thousand mosques, the seven hills, or a thousand and one nights, this bridge between Asia and Europe is a home for reaching the world from Occidental Hotels & Resorts in Istanbul. Daily life is accompanied at all times by the call to prayer from its mosques and seems to stop before the vision of the Hagia Sophia, palaces, or a sunset in the waters of the Bosporus.
Ancient Constantinople is a place brimming with nuances, contrasts and details that encourage a stroll along the way. Occidental Hotels & Resorts in Istanbul offer a comfortable location for starting the tour that will take you to Hagia Sophia, the basilica converted into a mosque and later in the museum, Süleiman Mosque, the largest in Istanbul, home to the Mausunny islands of Suleiman I, the magnificent and his wife, or the Dolmabahçe Palace, the imperial residence of the 19th century.
Lose yourself and treat yourself to Grand Bazaar is one of the must-see experiences of your visit. It is also the Church of San Salvador in Chora, whose Byzantine frescoes are considered the best preserved in the world; and the enormous Topkapi Palace, the center of Ottoman Empire. Climb up to the hilltop cemetery of Eyüp allows you to enjoy views of the Golden Horn, the division between East and West.
Old Constantinople is also home to a modern area with a center in Taksim Square, blending tradition and modernity. Same as in the Occidental Hotels proposal & Resorts in Istanbul. From an unrivaled position, guests can explore the hidden mosque of Rüstem Paş, relax in the Turkish baths or Gülhane Park and, above all, enjoy a magical city in complete comfort.
