About this sight
Journey into the depths of Istanbul's history as you step into The Basilica Cistern Museum, a subterranean marvel nestled beneath the city's bustling streets. This ancient reservoir, commissioned by Eastern Roman Emperor Justinian I in the 6th century, is affectionately known as the "Sunken Palace" due to its myriad marble columns rising from the water.
