The Maiden Tower in Istanbul is one of the symbols of the city. It is built on a small island located in the middle of the Bosphorus Strait.
The building is three-tiered. The upper level has a summer terrace with sofas, an observation deck with fixed binoculars, and a bar.
On the middle tier there are souvenir shops, a photo zone with Turkish decorations and costumes, there is also a cafe where a traditional Turkish breakfast is served in the morning and a set lunch in the afternoon.
On the lower tier there is a restaurant "Maiden Tower", inside which parties with a show program and live music are held.
The only way to get to the tower is by water. It is located near the Salajak embankment in the Uskyudar district — it is located in the Asian part of Istanbul. The shore and the historical monument are about 200 meters apart, which the boat overcomes in a couple of minutes.
Another option is to go to the tower from the European part of the city: from the ferry piers Kabatash or Karakey.
Or you can just sit on the embankment opposite this location, take tea from passing merchants and enjoy the views)

I really love this tower. You can look at it from the shore (it is very close), you can swim to it by boat, wander around this island, enjoy the views, climb to the top, take beautiful photos. The format of the restaurant changes from year to year, then a full-fledged institution, then a small coffee shop, but it is worth visiting anyway, especially at sunset.

One of the sights of Istanbul. You can get there by ferry. In front of the tower there is a square and benches to sit and enjoy the view.
For me, visiting the tower became a one-time action: I saw and forgot.

A beautiful lighthouse that is perfectly visible from the Asian part of Istanbul, which can be reached by ferry. For real romantics, there is currently a small restaurant inside.

The Maiden Tower in Istanbul is an amazing structure that towers over the waters of the Bosphorus. Built in the IV century, it served as a lighthouse, quarantine station, restaurant and even a prison. Today it is a cultural center where exhibitions, photo galleries and a restaurant are held.The tower is located in the Uskyudar area, and it can be reached by ferry from the Salacak pier. The cost of travel and visiting the tower is 40 Turkish lira. Ferries run from 12:00 to 0:00 every 15 minutes.Inside the tower there is a restaurant and a gift shop. There is an observation deck at the top, offering stunning views of the Asian part of Istanbul and the Bosphorus Strait.It is especially interesting to visit the Maiden Tower in the evening, when the light mechanism of the lighthouse turns on. It emits white and red flashes every three seconds, which creates a unique atmosphere.Overall, a visit to the Maiden Tower is a great opportunity to enjoy the beauty of Istanbul and learn more about the history of this amazing city.

In November, they wanted to climb the famous tower, but it was under repair. We hope there will be such an opportunity in the future...as it is, Istanbul is a city where everyone should visit, and of course you can't see everything here at one time

Visited in November 2023 according to the Museum Pass card - a ticket of 50 liras. Without a card 600 lire!!You can buy a ticket at the ticket office opposite the attraction itself in the Asian part of the city (Uskyudar district). The ticket price includes delivery to the island and back, as well as a visit to the Maiden Tower itself. The queue for the location is moderate, 15 minutes. From the tower there are beautiful views of the beautiful Istanbul. There is a coffee shop on the island, the prices are average.

A beautiful historical place! However, it is not so easy to get to the tower itself! There is a queue for the steamer, and for locals according to the historical map 50 liras, for tourists 400 liras! And so the view is beautiful both on the tower and from the tower itself!

Located 200 meters from the Golden Horn Bay in the Bosphorus Strait, this small rocky islet has been known for more than 2500 years. Both the ancient Greeks, Romans and Byzantines used its strategic location. There was a lighthouse, a customs house and a prison. Now there is a restaurant with an observation deck.It's a pity there was a repair there last time.

After the conquest of Istanbul by the Ottoman Empire, the tower was demolished and a wooden building was built in its place, which was destroyed by fire in 1719. It was built in stone under the supervision of architect Damat Ibrahim Pasha (Nevşehirli Damat Ibrahim Paşa). I advise everyone
