Created by your co-Group Leader after my recent lightning-fast visit to Istanbul, these photos show roughly a kilometer or so of the very middle section of the walls, between the Gate of Rhegium and the Cannon or Top Kapi Gate. This is about one-sixth of the total distance covered by the walls. Click here.
