The place is fantastic! Incredibly salted. However, it is not crowded. It's like a lost piece of the past in the midst of a modern metropolis. An amazing view of the Golden Horn opens from the observation deck. For me, this place is a must-visit when exploring Istanbul.
If you then walk through the ancient, unusually quiet winding streets to the Suleymaniye Mosque, then you will get great pleasure.

The second largest Orthodox church in the city after St. Sophia is not difficult to find, I do not understand why there are few visitors. For the interest of viewing, it is advisable to review the literature on this object. High dome, Beauty.

📍Pantokrator Monastery (Zeyrek Mosque). It consists of two former Byzantine churches and a chapel connected together. It was built between 1118 and 1124 by the Byzantine Empress Irina of Hungary. After the fall of Constantinople, the Turks turned the churches into a mosque. It is included in the UNESCO list.
Most of the historical floor of the Pantokrator Monastery in Istanbul is covered with carpet. According to Islamic traditions, there should be no images of people and animals in a mosque.
After the recent restoration, only a small glass-covered piece of the Byzantine floor in the extreme southern nave (to the right of the pulpit) was left for viewing. If it is closed, you can ask to show it)
Free entrance, except for prayer time. There are shawls and skirts, shoes can be left on the shelf. You can take pictures.
If you go up to the Piri Mehmet Pasha Mosque, you will find a beautiful observation deck, or a restaurant with an observation deck nearby.

It looks beautiful externally, there is an Istanbul pillar with a description in the courtyard. But at the end of July 2022, everything is closed. If you're around, go for a walk. I don't see any point in going on purpose.
