1 Day Trip Plan for Istanbul

If you have just one day for Istanbul, then you should be very quick! I suggest you to visit the most historically important part of the city.

Must have places to visit in 1 day:

• Sultanahmet Square (Sultanahmet Meydanı)
• Haghia Sophia (Aya Sofya)
• The Blue Mosque (Sultan Ahmet Camii)
• The Grand Bazaar or Covered Bazaar (Kapalı Çarşı)

Nice to have places if you can fit in 1 day:

• Topkapı Palace (you should drop Grand Bazaar above if you want to visit this museum)
  
• The Basilica Cistern (Yerebatan Sarayı/Sarnıcı)
• Archeological Museum (Arkeoloji Müzesi)

Eat Here That Day:

• Sultanahmet Köftecisi
