Istanbul: Capital of Two Empires
Saturday December 8, 2012 at 10:00am
Istanbul was the capital of two of the worlds great Empires: the Eastern Roman Empire of Byzantium and the Turkish Ottoman Empire. Situated between the continents of Europe and Asia the city was a natural crossroads, controlling land and sea trade and becoming very prosperous as a result. The city preserved a rich heritage from the Byzantine phase, including the incomparable Haghia Sophia Cathedral of the Emperor Justinian. Under the Ottoman Turks, Istanbul acquired many grand imperial mosques and the fabulous Topkapi palace. Details of this event may be subject to change.
