The old land walls.
The old land walls.
You can walk large parts from Yedikule up to the Golden Horn. Some sections are restored, others are rough. Go in daylight and with someone.
Yedikule fortress at the southern end is worth a visit.
Kariye (Chora) is near the walls.
Gardens (bostans) along the walls are still farmed, lovely.
Wear proper shoes.
Not much shade.
Some areas feel a bit deserted, keep valuables hidden.
Tekfur Palace museum is nearby, restored nicely.
Took us around 4 hours with breaks.
Incredible to think how old they are.
