Basilica Cistern Istanbul
Well worth the visit including the history which the guide told us about. And it's the place where the James Bond From Russia with Love was part filmed

Skip the line
Expensive but if skip the line and a 15 minute briefing is important. Go for it. It was worth it to ME.

Easy entrance
Once you locate the person with the white flag it is so easy to follow him into the cistern. He may be escorting someone inside when you arrive so don’t panic. Wait a few minutes and he’ll be back!

Marble columns at the Basilica Cistern (Yerebatan Sarayi) in Istanbul.
  • Wear comfortable, nonslip shoes to traverse the steps and the often-wet ground.

  • The entrance for wheelchair users and other visitors with mobility challenges is at the cistern’s exit.

  • As the cistern is underground, the setting is damp and cool. Take a layer if you don’t want to feel the chill.
