Basilica Cistern
This cavernous space is the largest remaining Byzantine reservoir in Istanbul. Constructed in the 6th century, it originally provided water filtration for the Great Palace of Constantinople, and continued to supply the Topkapi Palace from 1453 until the modern day. Opened to the public in 1987, you can now explore its lit walkways and be amazed by the decorative, water-worn columns.

Another interesting place that doesn't merit the long wait, the high ticket price. This is only an hour's visit at most. Walk around this glorious city instead and soak up the atmosphere. I love places like the Cistern but this price doesn't match the experience and I can't stand being packed into a place with huge crowds of tourists.Guest review byIeseancaRomania - 10.0

so glad I went here, you only need about 30 mins but its beautiful and worth a visit. Beautifully lit and apparently there are concerts there sometimes which would be amazing. 800 TL (July 2024) Please note, no toilets (well, I didn't see any).Guest review byMelanieUnited Kingdom - 10.0
Atmospheric.
Atmospheric. Not too busy when we visited, but you won't be alone. Admission fee but worth it. Exit is obvious, entrance around the corner. If there's a queue, say you want to pay with card and you might beat it, as we did.Guest review byPaulC23United Kingdom - 10.0

The Basilica Cistern in Istanbul is indeed a remarkable historical site, and it has been used for cultural and artistic events like Night Shift (cultural performances, concerts, art exhibitions or other creative activities). I recommend checking the official website of the Basilica CisternGuest review byCristinaBrazil - 8.0

An amazing example of how the re-use of old structure has aa long, long history. If you have small children, remember that CO2 is heavier than air, and they might need to be carried for some of the way if they feel a little dizzy.Guest review byWJAustralia - 10.0

its a must visit place as while looking at it one wonders the engineering and architect of that time and the kind of efforts which were made to create a nearly hidden, massive cistern. the ticket price of of 350 lira is a bit steep but since Sultanamet ( Blue Mosque) and Hagia Sofia( now when its a mosque) have no tickets, its OK. all are close by and could be visited in all in 2-3 hrs..Guest review byAlokIndia

- From $564.70 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 9.0Wonderful - What previous guests thought, 1,330 reviewsPristine location, right in the heart of everything — just steps from Hagia Sophia, Basilica Cistern, Sultanahmet, and prime dining spots. Breakfast offered great variety, including multiple egg options. Staff were incredibly welcoming and supportive, with special thanks to Talha for his outstanding service. For arrival, best to call ahead so the hotel can arrange a buggy pickup, as it’s in a no-vehicle zone (car drop-off is less than a minute’s walk away). Highly recommended!Guest review byMuhammedIndia
