Mevlanakapı
  • 45m
The Mevlevihane Kapı is the Rhesion Gate of the Byzantine period. The Greek inscription on the lintel, which refers to a 60-day repair, has been copied in Anthologia Palatina and annotated as “an inscription of the Rhesion Gate.” Byzantine sources also mention names such as Polyandrion/Myriandrion (Many Men/Thousand Men). These probably refer to the tombs in the vicinity. The bridge of the moat dates to the Ottoman period.
Chora Museum

Formerly Church of St. Saviour in Chora is renowned worldwide for its well-preserved mosaics and frescoes. It presents important and beautiful examples of East Roman painting in its last period.
