- History & Culture travel tip
- City center
Though the whole place has a kind of charm to it, the crowd and the fact that there aren't very many rooms open and the open ones are so scarcely furnished that you may be a bit disappointed when you leave the palace.
A good point on the place is that the terrace is open and you have an amazing vie of the Bosporus. That really makes up to the disadvantages of the palace.
Address:
Gülhane Park, Istanbul Province/Istanbul, Turkey
Price:
20TRL (10 EUR), 15TRL (7.5 EUR) for the Harem.
