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.

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.

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.

Романтическая локация для классных фото, особенно хорошо в жаркий день, так как дует лёгкий ветерок!
Можно подняться наверх и получить обзор на весь город)
Есть кафешка с вкусными напитками и дессертами.
Переправа из галатапорта плюс вход -600 лир!

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.

Красивое историческое место! Правда добраться на саму башню не так просто! На пароход нужно отстоять очередь, и для местных по исторической карте 50 лир, для туристов 400 лир! А так вид красивый и на башню и с самой башни!

It's not worth the money. You can walk around and climb the tower for 15 minutes. That's it.

Расположенный в 200 метрах от бухты Золотой Рог в проливе Босфор этот небольшой каменистый островок известен более 2500 лет. И древние греки и римляне и византийцы использовали его стратегическое расположение. Здесь были и маяк и таможня и тюрма. Сейчас здесь ресторан со смотровой площадкой.Жаль в прошлый приезд там был ремонт.

После завоевания Стамбула Османской империей, башня была снесена и на ее месте была сделана деревянная постройка, которая была уничтожена огнем в 1719 году. В каменном виде она была возведена под руководством архитектора Дамат Ибрагим Паша (Nevşehirli Damat İbrahim Paşa). Всем советую

Красивый вид, интересная история, ресторан отстойный с высокими ценами, если и ехать туда то чисто посмотреть вид и не более того. А побывать на ней стоит) очень красиво
