The Walls of Constantinople Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
The Istanbul Wall, also known as the Constantinople Wall, is a stone wall that surrounds and protects Constantinople (today called Istanbul), which has existed since the capital of the Roman Empire, Constantine I. The city walls of Constantinople have undergone numerous additions and repairs. It is an existing ancient fortress system and one of the most complex fortress systems in the world. The walls of Istanbul were originally built during the reign of Constantine I to defend against attacks by land and sea. Although some parts of the walls were slightly less elaborate, when properly deployed, the walls of Constantinople were unbreakable under any medieval attack. In the nineteenth century, the city grew beyond its medieval boundaries, with parts of the city walls removed, and the walls have fallen into disrepair since then, but many parts still stand. In the 1980s, it underwent extensive local restoration, and now visitors can see its majesty again.

Istanbul Old Town Asia, the old city wall between the Sophia Church and the old palace. Majestic, the heavy precipitation of history, the old city wall is a stone road, walking on it, feeling in the history of the long river stroll.
The environment is good, the environment is good, the environment is good.
Really a good place. Let's go see it together
The city walls in Istanbul are more important monuments. Although the city walls have been a bit broken, they can still tell the great history of Turkey. Don't miss it!
I saw it on the Internet that it was not safe here. I wanted to go in the big day, and I left after a few glances, because there were some young people asking for money at the foot of the city wall. Think back to how important such a city wall is during the religious war.
