The Topkapı Palace (Turkis: Topkapı Sarayı or in Ottoman: طوپقاپو سرايى) is a lairge palace in Istanbul, Turkey, that wis the primary residence o the Ottoman sultans for approximately 400 years (1465–1856) o thair 624-year reign.
You can imagine this palace is much bigger than the Vatican state it self. With an amazing views to the golden horn to the phosphorus & maramara sea. The Haremlic is a must to see.
Excellent item displays. Refreshed my knowledge on the life history of the prophets. And at the end of your tour do take a walk around the cafe area that overlooks the bosphorus strait. Breathtaking!
This architecture and detailed ceilings are among the most beautiful I've seen. You'll spend your visit looking up. If you go, don't miss the exquisite collection of jewels in the Treasury.
