Kapalicarsi 1461's by jorgesanchez

Istanbul - Turkey, Istanbul That year of 1461 written at the gate of the Grand Bazaar surprised me, but after thinking for a while I remembered that Constantinople fell in 1453. Old Byzantium first, and old Constantinople later, is now called Istanbul. Look at the tourist guide how he explains the history of the gate to the tourists. An armed police is controlling the entrance to avoid terrorist attacks to the tourists.
