| Istanbul It is one of tourist attractions which can not be removed by sightseeing, Galata Tower. The Galata Tower was originally built in the beginning of the 6th century, but it was rebuilt several times due to war and earthquake disaster, and the current figure was built in 1509. The appearance of stone shows the oldness of its history. Although the height of the Galata Tower is not so high, 69.9 m, it can be seen from many places in Istanbul because it is on the hill and there is no high building around. The way to the Galata Tower is steep, there are famous staircases called the stairs of Camomand. People who are not confident in physical fitness, use a tram as there is also a tram. From the observatory of the Galata Tower, you can overlook the city area of Istanbul. You can see New Town, Old Town and Asian District in the European District, which is separated by the Bosphorus Strait, not to mention the magnificent view of the Golden Horn Bay. Just a popular sightseeing spot, so it's frequent to have a queue to the observation deck, so let's take a moment to spare in time. |
