The tower has become one of Istanbul's most iconic symbols and has a rich history that dates back to ancient times. There are several legends associated with the Maiden's Tower, one of the most popular being the story of a princess who was locked away in the tower to protect her from a prophesied snake bite. Despite the precautions, she was eventually bitten by a snake hidden in a fruit basket and died, which gave the tower its name. Throughout its history, the Maiden's Tower has served various purposes, including a lighthouse, a quarantine station, and a radar station. Today, it is primarily a tourist attraction, with a restaurant and café that offer panoramic views of Istanbul and the Bosphorus.
