Queen of Cities

A physical and cultural bridge between Europe and Asia, the transcontinental city of Istanbul serves as a living reminder of the Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman empires.
Basilica Cistern and Sultanahmet District will appeal to history buffs. Attractions like Hagia Sophia Museum / Church (Ayasofya) and Istanbul Modern Museum make great kid-friendly stops. Next up on the itinerary: get engrossed in the history at Topkapi Palace, enjoy breathtaking views from Galata Tower, stop by Galeria Rugs, and admire the masterpieces at Kariye Museum (The Chora Church).

To see more things to do, photos, reviews, and tourist information, go to the Istanbul vacation trip planner.

The Route module shows you travel options from your home to Istanbul. Expect a daytime high around 29°C in September, and nighttime lows around 20°C.
