Good place to go and see this old water storage facility. However I think the entry fees is little too much for this place. Should not be more than 10tkl.
This place was a good place having nice to see which makes so attracted to people and having good locations and beautiful places
I visited this place some years ago and the fish there had more water to swim in. Anyhow it is a beautiful place, beautiful roman columns, it gives you a perspective on the scale of antique roman engineering.
Although it is a very large cavern underground and the fact that it was engineered in the 6th century awesome, there is just no reason to go see it. The pictures you can view online are better than what you can actually see inside.
It is a very beautifull place and it has a nice story about what it was. If there is no lime on the entrance you would not take a lot o time in there. The visita is about 30-45 minutes top. Possible to make great...More
this was awesome to see, really enjoyed it and so huge. the lighting suits it really well, its a must see.
The underground cisterns are located in the very heart of Istanbul. It is totally different world when you get underground. Impressive columns and size of the ancient water tank, indeed unforgetable experience. The site is rather mystic, dark and wet.
A unique place...underground site...cold and damp but really exciting to visit...just across the road from Hagia Sophia
This cistern is located in the historic part of Istanbul and clise to mist of the other attractions such as Blue mosque and Haiga Sphia. This is an underground building made by Romans for provision of water. The area is dark then if a flash...More
A fascinating place that one must visit. It does not take long to cover all parts. It is under renovation and I am sure it will be an even better to visit when it is all done
