Unique World Culture City


The one of the most exciting city in the world - Eyup, in Istanbul. This is the one holy places of Islam; the tomb of Eyup Ensari, a companion of the Prophet Mohamed, is a site of Islamic Pilgrimage. Take the ferry from Eminonu up the Golden Horn, a great trip in itself. Walk up to the Eyup Camii and visit the tomb and mosque with the faithful. It is wonderfully moving and memorable experience. 
Continue your walk up to the beautiful Eyup cemetery for wonderful views of Golden Horn. Visit other mosques around the city which are not full of visitors.
