Conquest of Constantinopolis Photoshop June 2009
When Sultan Mehmet II decides to conquer Constantinopolis (now called as Istanbul), he builds the Rumelian Castle and uses it as a command centre during the siege. This is where he comes up with the idea to slide the ottoman ships on the ground to get into the Golden Horn.
On the other hand, there are no certain evidences about this phenomenon.
