Показать описание

The largest underground water source in Constantinople was the Basilica Cistern. The cistern, which Justinian built following the riots in Nika, provided water to the city's inhabitants for many years. The cistern's existence appears to have been lost after the Ottoman conquest before being rediscovered.
The Basilica Cistern is one of Istanbul's most famous landmarks. Restoration work began in 2017, and it was closed to visitors by 2021. Now that it is reopened to visitors, we can finally take in this magnificent location in Istanbul.
Today we will show you the cistern's interior in this video! The astounding, mesmerizingly gorgeous Basilica Cistern, a 6th-century artifact that was almost lost to time, is tucked away beneath Istanbul's streets.
From being fully operational to being totally ignored to appearing in Hollywood movies over the years. By organizing concerts and daily tours, the Basilica today welcomes visitors from all over the world and shares its rich history with them. Discover its rich past and stunning architecture by visiting.
