Istanbul Should NOT Exist - Pt 4

Mirrored from: My Lunch Break Channel - Rumble

Episode 146 of My Lunch Break dives even deeper into Istanbul’s hidden past, revealing evidence of vast, interconnected underground cisterns that challenge the city’s official history. Beneath today’s parks and stadiums lie enormous vaulted chambers and columns—structures far larger and more sophisticated than mere water reservoirs. This episode uncovers how these spaces, once part of a massive Old World palace, were buried or built over in the 20th century and presented as separate sites built centuries apart. With new maps, photographs, and examples like the Ipek Bodrum Cistern under a children’s park, the investigation raises a striking question: are the grand mosques and landmarks we see today just the visible tops of a much larger, hidden world?
