We lived next to the park, so every morning and evening we always strolled through this wonderful place, passing to the tram stop number 1, a very convenient route. On the first day, we took a sightseeing tour, which included just all the sights gathered around the park. Very interesting, beautiful historical gems gathered in one place: the hippodrome, the palace of Ibrahim Pasha, the Blue Mosque, the palace of Top Cape. Additionally, apart from the tour, we ourselves went to Hagia Sophia, the basilica, and the archaeological museum here. In Hagia Sophia, you need to take a guide, you can't see a lot there because you don't know where to look, the guide found us near the mosque himself. I recommend going to museums in the morning, there are long queues everywhere for lunch. There are many cafes around, they sell corn, chestnuts, bagels for snacks. There is a fountain in the center of the square, and a mosaic in a circle around it. You can have a budget meal in an analogue of our potato chips, very large portions. Inexpensive and satisfying - doners. Two stops up the street- Grand Bazaar. If you like to walk, you can walk. One stop down is Gulhane Park. In general, there is beauty all around and it is very intense! All the most important historical buildings are here.

It's a small, pleasant park, and there are a couple of parrots in the playground area. On one side of the park there is an exit to the beautiful embankment, on the other the entrance to the Top Cape Palace and Sultanahmet Square. There is a nice free Cistern in the park, which is important for those who want to save money. I didn't like that most of the lawns and flower beds are covered with fences, but as I understand it, this is a necessary measure, otherwise the Turks will tear everything down and trample it, I witnessed it myself. All toilets on the istambul 5 lira card and not only in this park, you can purchase it at metro and tram stations.

Sultan Ahmet Park in Istanbul is a great place for walking and relaxing. Located in the historical center of the city, the park is surrounded by famous landmarks such as the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. Green lawns and cozy benches create an atmosphere of tranquility. An ideal place for photo shoots and family activities. The park is well maintained, clean and safe, which makes it attractive to tourists and locals. I definitely recommend you to visit!

A beautiful place in the heart of the Fatih district, always crowded and noisy, a must-visit, is located between two mosques - Sultanahmet (Naked Mosque) and Ayasofiya (Former Orthodox Cathedral of St.Sofia). There is a huge fountain in the center, there are many benches to sit down, but there is not always a place, some are located right on the lawns. Beautiful lighting at night. There is a T1 tram stop nearby, many cafes and restaurants, a Basilica Cistern, a hammam, ice cream vendors, etc.shops with food and souvenirs. Gulhane Park is within walking distance. In one of the cafes, you can admire the dancing of dervishes daily (you can also watch it from the street). The photos here are extraordinary at any time of the day. Passage to both mosques is free, everyone can look in, subject to the dress code (those with inappropriate clothes are given shawls and skirts, you must take off your shoes), very often there are huge queues, but they move quickly.

This is my favorite place in Istanbul. The atmosphere is just a cannon! There are a lot of tourists, but no one bothers anyone. There is an underground toilet, one for the entire large area. The fountain was open in December. The cruise tour operators were confused, they very persistently wanted to take a ride along the Bosphorus, this alienated us and we did not go.

It's nice to stroll through the park between the two mosques. In hot weather, go to the always cool fountain. Magnificent view during the day and evening square full of lights.

An iconic place. There are so many attractions in a small square! St. Sophia, Blue Mosque, Hurrem Sultan Hamam, Akhmet Mausoleum, Ibrahim Palace, Hippodrome, Fountains, Column, etc. Just goosebumps from the concentration of the story. There are events going back centuries on every meter.

A great place to just go for a walk. The fountain is illuminated in the evening. Lots of tulips, seagulls and cats. It's very clean, Turks often have a picnic right on the grass.

It was beautiful and pleasant here. Everything is highlighted in the evening. On one side is AyaSofia, on the other the glowing Sultanahmet. We were in the holy month and a lot of people had an evening picnic on the grass in the park.

To say that a magical place is nothing to say. You just have to visit there and soak up the whole atmosphere of Istanbul. Other sights of the city such as the Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace, the heart of the Ottomans, and the Basilica Cistern are within walking distance.

The main sights of Istanbul. I liked the basilica and the blue Mosque the most, you can freely enter it after taking off your shoes. In my opinion, the passage to St. Sophia's Temple is not worth the money, they are not allowed on the first floor and it is in a very neglected state

This is the place where every tourist should visit. There are no disadvantages to this place. There are about 5 attractions nearby that you will visit in Istanbul. This is the gathering and departure point for all tourists. You can stop, relax, eat a bagel and run on.
