Istanbul

The Obelisk of Theodosius stands in the old Hippodrome in Istanbul, an Egyptian granite obelisk far older than the city around it, brought here and set on a carved Roman base. The carvings on the base show the emperor watching the races.

The Arasta Bazaar is a small covered run of shops behind the Blue Mosque in Istanbul, quieter and more manageable than the Grand Bazaar. The Mosaic Museum is entered from the same lane.
