Many people say that there is no point in spending money, but I really liked it! I visited as part of a group tour (around the city), they paid extra for the tank.
The structure is impressive, as is the laser show that is being played (there are two of them). A place less crowded with tourists than the Cisterna Basilica. I recommend you to visit.
Unreasonably expensive..
400 lire for a basement with columns..which we passed in 1 minute..
Don't waste your time and money.

650 lire, for what? This is 1,900 rubles. Columns and water. It's very stuffy. Yes, there was a light show, but it repeats every 5 minutes. There is nothing to do in the tank for more than 10 minutes. It's better to go to a restaurant than to this tourist mansion.
Now a ticket for a laser "show" that runs for 15 minutes costs 250 lira, a visit is absolutely not worth the money. There's something about history in the title of the show, in fact, the pictures on the walls just changed and that's it. They came out in shock and misunderstanding for what such money is. I do not recommend it!
A great place, a beautiful laser show, small in size and modern in execution. The cistern impressed with its interesting history, both from the Byzantine period and the modern one! I advise you to visit! The price for an entrance ticket with a laser show for December 2022 is 180 lira.
If you are not a fan of ancient Roman architecture, then 5 minutes will be enough for you to explore this place. The entrance fee is 500 liras (1,500 rubles). Every 15 minutes, the same video about the 100th anniversary of the Turkish Republic is played on the walls inside the tank. It looks beautiful, lasts 5 minutes, the second episode has not been filmed
I went to this cistern instead of the Basilica Cistern and did not regret it. There is no queue, there are not many people, also in the city center, a colorful light show
You can go for 50 lire, I do not advise you to go more expensive, even to a light show. We went for 250 lira (the price for tourists 03.01.23) and it's not worth it at all. Just a hall with columns and a light show every half hour for 10 minutes.
The tank is small, but the laser show is great, there are two of them, do not miss it. The time does not always start on time, I waited 15 minutes for the first show and 10 minutes for the second, calculate the time
The entrance fee for tourists is 250 liras on 01/20/2023. the entrance ticket to the laser show is 350 liras per person. The show did not cause much excitement. The information that the visit is free is not correct.
It's not worth it, the infographics of the 90s have not been relevant for a long time, to run in for a couple of minutes and take a couple of photos is nothing more…
The cistern of Theodosius is much more interesting than the Basilica. Plus, there is practically no queue, and every hour there is a light show, very impressive! It's worth a visit.
