It's a great place, with a great panorama of Istanbul city. There are very few tourists, few local Turks, as we understood it. We went there on foot (I don't recommend it, it's a very bad and scary road), and back by bus. We visited all the towers and expositions on the territory.

An important place for the history of Constantinople and the Ottoman Empire. This is where the capture of the city by Mehmed 2 Fatih began in 1453. The fortress walls are well preserved. Although far from the center, you can get there quickly by metro, the train runs along the sea. Buses often run along the walls, so you can return to the center by land transport. There are very few people!
