After seeing the Basilica Cistern pay a visit to the Cistern of Philoxenos. Slightly smaller but deeper than the Basilica Cistern, it hosts weddings and events.
It is the second largest underground cistern in Istanbul (after the Basilica Cistern) but the oldest one, built by Constantine the Great who founded (Constantinople) in 330 AD with 212 columns.
The cistern was constructed under a palace, often identified as the Palace of Antiochos in the 5th. The cistern was restored by Justinian I,after the palace was completely destroyed in a fire in 475.
