A Guide To Basilica Cistern, Istanbul
Basilica Cistern is regarded as one of the most remarkable structures in Istanbul, Turkey. It’s a beautifully preserved building that houses an underground cistern that dates as far back as ancient times. It was built for the **Byzantine Emperor, Justinianus I** back when the area was still known as **Constantinople**. At about 140 m (459 ft) long and 70m (230 ft) wide, the cistern sits under what used to be the Stoa Basilica, one of the great squares in Istanbul, hence its name. Though it is said that there are many cisterns in Istanbul, this one is perhaps the largest. The structure is composed of **336 columns** and two of these are strangely carved with the persona of Greek mythological creature **Medusa**. Today, the cistern no longer acts as a reservoir but is open to the public for viewing and is sometimes even used for concerts. To know more about this astonishing historical landmark, read our guide to Basilica Cistern below.
