Rumeli Hisari in Istanbul

Rumeli Hisari in Istanbul

Rumeli Hisari in Istanbul- The Rumeli Hisari, which was built in 90 days in order to cut the aid that may come from the Black Sea to Byzantium during the conquest of Istanbul by Fatih Sultan Mehmet, is also known as Bogazkesen Fortress for its purpose.

 
Rumelihisarı, a magnificent building with its three large towers and walls, is located right across the Anatolian Fortress at the point where the two shores of the Bosphorus are closest to each other.
 
The fortress, where outdoor events such as Rumelihisarı Concerts were held, is now open to visitors as a museum. The cannons, cannonballs used in the conquest of Istanbul and a part of the chain that is said to have closed the Golden Horn are still on display at the Rumeli Fortress Museum.
