'People come to touch the walls': fears for Istanbul’s crumbling Byzantine past
Turkish city's pre-Ottoman heritage is falling away through lack of care or being obscured for political purposes.
Despite restoration led by the opposition-controlled Istanbul municipality, local news stories about sections of the wall collapsing are a frequent occurrence, a sign of how the city's pre-Ottoman heritage often hides in plain sight, is allowed to wither or is obscured for political purposes.
Small allotments and farms exist along sections of former Istanbul city boundary wall between Yedikule Kap?s? and Belgrad Kap?s?. The slow restoration project is currently led by the Istanbul city Municipality. The museum is open to the public, whilst work continues. It offers views across the historic peninsula, and the great city walls that surround modern Istanbul, Turkey’s largest city.
