How to run the day

Run the day as the eastern mirror of Al-Andalus: every stop rhymes with something your group knows from Córdoba, Seville or Granada — tile, layered faith, and Mediterranean trade.

  1. 1Hagia Sophia
    • ›Four lives: Byzantine cathedral, briefly Catholic, Ottoman mosque, museum, mosque again (2020).
    • ›For 900 years it was the largest enclosed space on earth.
    Story: Point to the runic graffiti a Viking guard scratched into a marble parapet upstairs — 'Halfdan was here', a thousand years ago.

  2. 2Basilica Cistern
    • ›336 columns; two rest on reused Medusa heads set sideways and upside down.
    • ›Built under Justinian in 532 to water the Great Palace.
    Story: Tell them the Medusa was turned the 'wrong' way so her stone-turning gaze pointed at no one.

  3. 3Grand Bazaar
    • ›~4,000 shops across 60-odd covered streets — one of the world's oldest malls.
    • ›İznik-style ceramics share a lineage with Andalusian azulejos.
    Story: Show the old bedesten at the core — the fireproof stone vault where merchants once locked the city's most precious goods.
