| First of all, I'm surprised not to see Anatolia in the
list of the castles' locations because Anatolia is very rich on that. The
Castle I'll be telling you is a Byzantine Structure, in Istanbul,
laterly conquered by the Ottoman Empire in 1453.This conquer ended the Byzantine
empire and lead the existence of Renaissance. Castle has oval towers (7 of them) to avoid cannon impacts as much as possible. And
many dungeons to keep prisoners. It's architecture is not very
complicated but it has 7 walls going inner and inner parallel to it's thickness. It
also has 3 deep ditches surrounding the walls. Oil holes are located
over the gates. |
