  2. Serpent Column
  3. Constantine Obelisk
• German Fountain - In 1901, German Emperor Wilhelm II gifted a fountain, built in Germany, to Sultan Abdulhamit. Located in Sultanahmet Square, its architecture stands out from both Ottoman and European styles. The inscription on the fountain expresses gratitude for the gift.

Once the largest Eastern Roman Church in Istanbul, it has been rebuilt three times on the same site. Known for its stunning domes, monolithic marble columns, and unique mosaics, it is a marvel of architectural history. The mosque’s beauty, with its play of space, light, and color, inspires worship. Situated on Istanbul’s first hill, it is surrounded by the Sea of Marmara, the Bosphorus, and the Golden Horn.
