230 km from Istanbul, 3.5 km from the Greek border and 13 km from the Bulgarian border. Ancient Andrinople boasts some of the country's finest mosques, including the Selimiye, the most accomplished work of the brilliant architect Sinan. Andrinople was founded by Emperor Hadrian in 125 AD. Its strategically important position made it an essential crossing point for troops heading for Istanbul or Europe. Conquered by the Ottomans in 1360, Andrinople remained the Ottoman capital until the capture of Constantinople
