Halic – the area surrounding the Golden Horn, which belongs to the Historical Peninsula, is rightfully considered one of the most beautiful parts of Istanbul.

The Golden Horn with its natural harbor once served as an important port where merchant ships of the Ottoman and Eastern Roman Empires anchored. Now it is a multicultural area with mosques, churches, synagogues and ancient schools, preserving traces of more than a thousand years of Istanbul's history.
