What to expect
Turkish and Islamic Arts Museum (Turk ve Islam Eserleri Muzesi)
The Turkish and Islamic Art Museum used to be the palace of the grand vizier Ibrahim Pasha, and it houses a lot of rich artifacts from so many different Muslim and Turkish civilizations from the early 7th century to the 19th century. It is a very unique and gorgeous building.
The cisterns were used as water storage and provided water for many civizilatıons. The most impressive ones remaining intact in the present day are those from the Roman period. we are going to visit one of the most well preserved. If the cistern is closed, it is replaced with Theodosius Cistern.
Date back to 1461 it was designed for the merchants who were traveling and trading along the silk road. As we know that Constantinople was the last stop on the road before reaching the European markets We are going to take you inside and do our best to cover a few authentic places among the 2 to 3 thousand stores.
The best part of the Ottoman culture and tradition is to treat yourself like an emperor at a centuries old traditional bathhouse and get eternal youth and beauty with bathing and auratheraphy massage.
Lokanta 1741
Millennium's old Anatolian cuisine offers all its richness generously to those who are lucky enough. We highly recommend you to have a meal with Anatolian wine to have a genuine experience. The restaurant might be replaced with a similar class alternative depending on its availability.
