One is Not Enough Peek through the huge dark doors on Sahne Sokak, near Beyoglu's Çiçek Pasaji (Flower Passage), and you'll see the Armenian Church of the Three Altars (Üç Horan Ermeni Kilisesi). Unexpected in Istanbul? Yes. The story goes that a man with some affliction prayed for deliverance, offering to build a church with not one but three altars if God helped him. God did, and he did, and here it stands, a gem hidden away behind huge, heavy—but usually open—doors on a narrow street the Balik Pazari (Fish Market) in old Beyoglu.
