Some parts from Constantinople . Byzantium time there has hippodrome of Constantinople .horse racing chariot race and many Actions was here .now just some walls and stones for us.all Sultanahmet square area was hippodrome long long time ago. You can visit and look no need nay pay ..
The only remaining part of the Hippodrome (ancient horse race track from the Byzantine empire) still standing until today. Looking at it takes you back thousands of years in time. Underneath these walls were where the horses were prepared before the race. Access inside the wall is prohibited unfortunately but it doesn't stop you from admiring the rich history behind it.
Amazing. Walls that sustain the hypodrome site.
It is amazing that this wall is still standing. Underneath this structure is filled with earth and water. Unfortunately, we were not allowed to enter.
It’s a market in the evening worth visiting. You can find turkish produce from there.
