It's a good hotel, but there was construction work at the entrance, and it took half an hour to get a taxi to the airport, which is the only negative. Otherwise, I liked everything.

An interesting historical place, as if you immerse yourself in the life and everyday life of the sultans.

Beautiful architecture, a large park for walking. For general development, it is very interesting to visit, but the price is not objectively overpriced.

Good. But you probably shouldn't go without a guide because the audio guide is not very informative

Super, impressive in its grandeur and beauty. I always wonder how such strong, majestic buildings were built at that time.

The building itself is grandiose and interesting, but as a museum it does not stand up to any criticism : (bare walls, rare sofas and that's it. No furniture or household items to somehow refresh the impression. Fantasize for yourself, in short. The harem is in the photo.

It's a great place, it's a pity that you came late. If you want to do everything in time and have a quiet look, then come earlier

Globally, it may not differ from other palaces, because kings, sultans and begging rulers live essentially the same way. But there is enough oriental flavor and unique places like the harem for additional interest. I was more interested here than in the same Hagia Sophia

Tickets are expensive at two rubles per person. Most of the palace is closed for repairs. But it's worth going in. A great collection of weapons.

History, beautiful, lots of people, it's better to buy a ticket early in the morning for the opening. It is difficult to walk in the heat, it is better to choose weather that is not sunny.

I lowered the estimate for the cost, all visits in January 2025 cost 1,700 liras per person, so we walked only through the free part of the garden.

it should be laid for at least 3 hours. In October 2025, 2,400 lira per person was released. An audio guide is included in the ticket price. You can get it by leaving your passport as a deposit.

We visited the palace with an excursion. It was very interesting to find out how the sultans lived. I advise you to visit the new palace, which has already been built in the European style.

It is very expensive and not justified to visit. It's easier to watch on YouTube. When you are offered to purchase a free audio guide, be prepared to purchase activation for $50

There is something to see, but the scale has failed: Peterhof is much bigger and more interesting. But comparing Europe and Asia is a thankless task. It was interesting

Hi! Well, I'm sorry, this is an iconic place! And not only for fans of the Magnificent Century series, but also for all history lovers and other onlookers! Here, at one time, the history of the Mediterranean was created and not only! I recommend you to visit.

In January 2023, the entrance ticket cost us 500 lire (650 if you want to go to the harem). What is really impressive is the observation deck overlooking the Bosphorus. There are long queues during the day here not only in the season (in summer), but also in winter, so it's better to come here before 11.

A huge palace complex on the shore of the Bosphorus, with a huge number of buildings (gazebos, armories, canteens, harem (for a fee). There are quite large queues during the day, I advise you to lay at least 2-3 hours in order to stop somewhere and watch and listen to the audio guide

There is a huge queue, but there is essentially nothing to watch. There are several places with a pleasant view of the water. The palace itself is very ascetic, inanimate.
