Topkapı Palace was the official residence of the Ottoman Sultans, starting with Fatih Sultan Mehmet until 1856 and then after functioned as the administrative center of the state.
Personally, I highly recommend visiting it even if you are one-day-visit in Istanbul. A huge structure that bewitches with its beauty and power. I'm sure you will not remain indifferent

The second must-see place is Hagia Sophia. It is the most beautiful cathedral in the whole of Turkey. Here you can see the mix of two religions: Islam and Christianity, their culture and feelings.
