Fatih (in turkish: conqueror) is one of the largest and central districts of Istanbul, Turkey, in the heart of the city. Since it constitutes the old quarter of the city conquered by Mehmed II the Conqueror, even today it is also called as the "real Istanbul" or the "first Istanbul". (Previously, Eminönü was also a part of Fatih district. Today Fatih and Eminönü constitute the old Istanbul peninsula, which was formerly the Constantinople.) Fatih sits within the Roman walls, is home to Fatih Mosque, the first prominent Ottoman mosque in Istanbul. Since it is the primary historical area of the city, it contains some of the most important historical monuments in the city. |
