Sultanahmet
Istanbul
The Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, the Topkapi Palace, and the underground cistern of Yerebatan Sarniçi all reside within the ancient neighborhood.

After you've scoped out the area's heavy-hitter sightseeing, here are some other spots worth exploring—in Sultanahmet and beyond.
