Ksenia Mardina
Underground palace resembling the sunken Acropolis is one of the forty ancient cisterns that lie beneath the city of Istanbul. Compared to its counterparts it's rather well preserved – columns, supported by upside-down Medusa heads, vaulted ceiling and water everywhere – quite a post apocalypse. It was a filming location for James Bond and Konchalovsky's Odyssey but looks more awesome in reality – so a line under the heat is totally worth it.
