In addition to that, it is a city full of awe-inspiring landmarks that you probably have seen in postcards, such as the ever-majestic Hagia Sophia, Topkap\u0131 Palace, Sultanahmet Mosque, and many more.

deeply religious person or an art or history enthusiast, make sure you catch a glimpse of the Chora Church. This Greek Orthodox church was originally called the Church of the Holy Saviour Outside the Walls, and it is famed for its various frescoes and mosaics portraying the life and death of Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nestled deep within Theodosius II&#8217;s enormous land walls, the Chora Church houses its fair share of Byzantine art that history and art enthusiasts would surely enjoy. These famous mosaics and frescoes date way back to 1320 and were commissioned by Theodore Metochites, a poet and a logothete who was responsible for the Byzantine treasury. Among the most notable mosaics in the museum is found just above the door to the nave in the inner narthex. It depicts Theodore offering the church to Christ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Upon entering the church, you\u2019ll see that most of the interior is covered with mosaics depicting the lives of Christ and the Virgin Mary. It also features a mosaic of the two donors: Prince Isaac Comnenos and Melane, daughter of Byzantine emperor Michael VIII Palaiologos. If you look at the dome, you\u2019ll see the awe-striking Genealogy of Christ, which depicts Jesus and his ancestors, along with the serene mosaic of Mary and baby Jesus surrounded by her ancestors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 style=\"font-size:18px\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-to-get-there\"><\/span><strong>How To Get There:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If your starting point is at Karak\u00f6y, the best way to get to the Chora Church is to ride the Hali\u00e7 ferry and get off at Ayvansaray. Take a short walk up the hill along Dervi\u015fzade Sokak, then turn right into E\u011frikap\u0131 Mumhane Caddesi. When you see the \u015ei\u015fhane Caddesi, take a left, then follow the remnants of Theodosius II&#8217;s land walls. You will know you\u2019re on the right track once you pass by the Palace of Constantine Porphyrogenitus. Then, From Hoca \u00c7ak\u0131r Caddesi, turn left into Vaiz Sokak just before the stairs leading up to the ramparts of the wall. Finally, turn left into Kariye Sokak, and you will see the museum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"try-turkish-cuisine\"><\/span><strong>Try Turkish Cuisine<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/turuhi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Istanbul-Unleashed-Turkish-Cuisine-Turuhi.jpg\" alt=\"Delicious Turkish Cuisine\" class=\"wp-image-4255\" srcset=\"https:\/\/turuhi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Istanbul-Unleashed-Turkish-Cuisine-Turuhi.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/turuhi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Istanbul-Unleashed-Turkish-Cuisine-Turuhi-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/turuhi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Istanbul-Unleashed-Turkish-Cuisine-Turuhi-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/turuhi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Istanbul-Unleashed-Turkish-Cuisine-Turuhi-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/turuhi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Istanbul-Unleashed-Turkish-Cuisine-Turuhi-96x96.jpg 96w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Istanbul\u2019s food culture is a culmination of influences from Central Asia, the Ottoman Empire, the Balkans, and the Caucasus. If you are a foodie, Istanbul might as well be a food paradise for you. Make sure you leave your hotel with an empty stomach because you will need plenty of stomach space when you go food tripping in Istanbul, given the diverse selection of scrumptious food such as the signature Turkish delight, d\u00f6ner kebab street food, and sticky sweet baklava to name a few.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure you try Kofte, which is made from lamb or beef meatballs. If you are craving pizza, try the Pide, which is the equivalent of a pizza in Turkey. When dining in restaurants, give the Meze a try, which is basically a selection of small plates of savory dishes usually served alongside drinks. Meze typically includes meat, cheese, olives, dips, bread, and vegetables. It would also be interesting to order dolma, which is stuffed vine leaves or vegetables. And, of course, you can\u2019t forget the famous kebabs, which are skewers of cooked, flavorful meat. For sandwich lovers, you have to try doner, which is a filling meat sandwich made from lamb, beef, or chicken, along with an assortment of fresh leafy vegetables.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"watch-a-turkish-night-dinner-show-with-belly-dancing-and-whirling-dervishes\"><\/span>Watch a Turkish Night Dinner Show with Belly Dancing And Whirling Dervishes<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/turuhi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Istanbul-Unleashed-Turkish-Belly-Dancer-Turuhi.jpg\" alt=\"Turkish Night Dinner Show with Belly Dancing\" class=\"wp-image-4256\" srcset=\"https:\/\/turuhi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Istanbul-Unleashed-Turkish-Belly-Dancer-Turuhi.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/turuhi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Istanbul-Unleashed-Turkish-Belly-Dancer-Turuhi-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/turuhi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Istanbul-Unleashed-Turkish-Belly-Dancer-Turuhi-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/turuhi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Istanbul-Unleashed-Turkish-Belly-Dancer-Turuhi-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/turuhi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Istanbul-Unleashed-Turkish-Belly-Dancer-Turuhi-96x96.jpg 96w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>After exploring the beautiful landmarks and popular tourist spots in the enigmatic city of Istanbul during the day, you can cap off the night by spending the evening at Galata Tower. Here, you can savor a scrumptious dinner featuring Turkish cuisine in a plush first-class restaurant while enjoying a show featuring artists and performers such as oriental singers, belly dancers, and traditional Anatolian folk musicians. You will also discover the delights of a typical Fasil orchestra and marvel at jaw-dropping performances of famous belly dancers. Also, prepare to be in awe as you watch the visual spectacle of skilled dancers performing a whirling dervish while clad in white, spinning expertly as if in a trance. Truly, there is no better way to relax after a day of strolling and exploring than sipping Turkish coffee, cocktails, or vodka while watching the show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"tour-around-the-bursa-uludag-mountain-while-enjoying-a-cable-car-ride\"><\/span><strong>Tour Around the Bursa Uluda\u011f Mountain While Enjoying a Cable Car Ride<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/turuhi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Istanbul-Unleashed-Bursa-Uludag\u0306-Mountain-Turuhi.jpg\" alt=\"Bursa Uluda\u011f Mountain While Enjoying a Cable Car Ride\" class=\"wp-image-4257\" srcset=\"https:\/\/turuhi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Istanbul-Unleashed-Bursa-Uludag\u0306-Mountain-Turuhi.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/turuhi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Istanbul-Unleashed-Bursa-Uludag\u0306-Mountain-Turuhi-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/turuhi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Istanbul-Unleashed-Bursa-Uludag\u0306-Mountain-Turuhi-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/turuhi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Istanbul-Unleashed-Bursa-Uludag\u0306-Mountain-Turuhi-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/turuhi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Istanbul-Unleashed-Bursa-Uludag\u0306-Mountain-Turuhi-96x96.jpg 96w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Bursa Uluda\u011f is Turkey\u2019s favorite winter tourist spot for skiing.

After lunch, you can have a fun ride on a cable car headed towards Bursa\u2019s city center. Up high, you can admire the panoramic view of the majestic mountain and the surrounding trees.
