The Marcian Column was erected as a Roman honorific column in Constantinople by the praefectus urbi Tatianus. It’s a memorial to Emperor Marcian. It is currently located in Istanbul’s Fatih district. The history of the column must be inferred from its location, style, and dedicatory inscription, since it is not mentioned in any late Roman or Byzantine source. Two slabs of red-grey Egyptian granite make up the column. The quadrilateral foundation is surrounded by four slabs of white marble. On three faces, the IX monograms are placed within medallions, while two genii hold a globe on the fourth.

The Republic Monument in Taksim Square was built of bronze and concrete using public funds in 1928 and put in its present position. Given that the monument costs 165 thousand Liras, it is assumed that the public and different groups paid 74.4 percent of the cost. It is one of the most significant monuments of the republic. Aside from Atatürk and his brothers in arms, the monument, which is one of Istanbul’s icons, features two flags that represent the national fight and Turkey’s contemporary face. Another prominent feature in the monument is the pair of Mehmetcik figures, who are believed to be the perpetual guards of the pact-i national boundaries, holding the Turkish flag.

The work that gave its name to Kiztasi Street, one of the earliest Turkish districts created after the invasion, is a massive column built in his honor in 455 AD by the Roman Emperor Marcianus. It was constructed from two slabs of red-gray Egyptian granite. Its four-sided base is constructed of white marble. Greek Crosses adorn the medallions on all three sides of it. It is known as the Kiztasi among the locals because to the presence of the Nike Statue on its pedestal.

The Constantine Obelisk (also known as the Knitted Obelisk) is situated adjacent to the Serpent Column on the south side of Sultanahmet Square. While you’re there, you may purchase a variety of items for yourself or your loved ones in Sultanahmet Square. It is 32 meters in length.
