Attraction guide
Hagia Sophia about what you should know.
Hagia Sophia is Istanbul's most visited historical landmark. Built in 537 by Byzantine Emperor Justinian I, it was the world's largest cathedral for nearly 1,000 years.
Its central position in Sultanahmet puts Topkapı Palace and the Blue Mosque within walking distance. Allow at least 1.5 hours for the visit; the upper-gallery mosaics are not to be missed.
By taxi: about 50 min from the airport, 15–20 min from Taksim. Sultanahmet's narrow streets mean drivers usually drop you near Cağaloğlu or the edge of Sultanahmet Square.
