It is beautiful, luxurious, it seems that the palace floats very gracefully along the Bosphorus))). The interior is very luxurious, you can buy a remote guide where you can tell in some detail what you see. Carpets, furniture, dishes, personal belongings. The exposition in the rooms of the Sultan, the Sultan's mother and his wives is carefully preserved.
A pleasant courtyard in front of the palace. Exit to the coast through the majestic gate. The palace itself is small, the interiors are interesting, but a little dusty. You can't take pictures. A big plus: inexpensive.
A great park around the palace. There is access to the sea. There is a great view of the bridge over the Bosphorus from the sea. The palace building itself is partially under reconstruction. There is a cafe on the territory of the park. There is a gift shop at the exit from the palace grounds.
Half of the courtyard is now covered, the facade is being reconstructed from the outside. Admission costs 25 lire per person. Considering the reconstruction and the fact that the upper garden is completely closed, it is very expensive. It is unclear why the price has been raised since the summer. It is very difficult to take a picture at the first gate without people. But here is the problem of world society (since there were representatives of many countries), no one cares about others. They go out the gate and take pictures of the bridge and the Bosphorus at once, there is no way to go two meters along the embankment to the left. Although they see that someone is constantly taking photos with the gate. And they pass at the speed of a sick turtle.
We were driving because of the photo with the gate and the garden. Well, at least part of it was a success.
Excellent views of the Bosphorus. A gorgeous park/garden. You can have a delicious snack on the territory, the palace itself is very European, but with a traditional Turkish location of the rooms. If you do not want to explore the palace from the inside, you can buy a ticket only with access to the territory, if you get into a very tourist time - a good option not to shove in the crowd inside. There is a large excursion flow of Turkish schoolchildren.
After Dolmabahce, it looks modest). But it's still impressive. And if you are in the Asian part of Istanbul, then it is definitely worth a visit. A visit to the museum costs 350 lire per person (March 2024). The audio guide is included in the ticket price. Magnolias from there ).
You can get from Uskudar by bus 15 or from Kadikoy by bus 14.
Back in the same way.
A very beautiful place, overlooking the Bosphorus, a wonderful creation of Armenian architects
Balyanov, under Sultan Abdul-Aziz, 1865.A walk through the garden costs 20 rubles, there is a cozy cafe closet where you can drink coffee, enjoy the views
I liked the place, the small Sultan's Palace (summer residence). Quiet, no crowds of tourists, 4 tickets (two adults and two children 1130 liras). The ticket price includes an audio guide in Russian, either a passport or 2000 liras as a deposit. You must take an audio guide.
The place is more modern compared to Topkapi. More has been preserved in part of the interior, so you get into the atmosphere of that time better.
Of the disadvantages: it is more difficult to get from the center on your own.
In principle, it is interesting to see the palace, but it is better to arrive in advance, since the upper part of the gardens is closed before the main territory
A very beautiful palace and a park near the palace! It is a pity that they are not allowed to take pictures inside the palace, if you are in Istanbul, I advise you to mark it!
A wonderful summer residence of the Sultans! It is very beautiful and rich. There is a free audio guide secured by a passport, in Russian.
You can't take photos inside, but I couldn't resist and took one as a keepsake)
The ticket costs a reasonable 200 liras. It is a must to visit!
The entrance is 350 lire, the garden is 20 lire.
Nice views of the bridge and the Bosphorus. Like everything in Turkey, it is expensive, the palace is similar to all the others in Istanbul... If there were, then only to the garden for photos.
It is better to get there by ferry and bus.
It is forbidden to photograph the halls of the palace. This is the main disadvantage. There is also a huge bridge directly above the park.
Otherwise, I liked everything very much. It's beautiful, picturesque, and the tickets are not cheap.
The palace is a must-visit! The price is minimal, the pleasure is to the maximum. Convenient to get to. It is better to visit in the morning, there are fewer people. Photo and video shooting is prohibited, but there is something to see, probably simpler than Dolmabahce, but also impressive.
A very beautiful palace! Sometimes it is even more spectacular than Dolmabahce because of the beautiful wall paintings. The furniture and almost the entire interior have been preserved
There is a free audio guide that will tell you in detail and interestingly about the palace. You can't take pictures inside, there are few visitors (at least in winter)
The Summer Palace of the Sultans in the 19th and 20th centuries. The palace is in the Eastern European style. But it looks more like an exhibition of furniture from that era. The audio guide tediously talks about the rooms of the palace and the materials from which the furniture is made. It's not very interesting. But there is something to see - chandeliers, ceramics, ceilings, stairs. I want to liven up the interior. A courtyard with access to the Bosporus, beautiful views, Especially charming is the modern bridge located nearby.
The magnificent palace 💕 to say that we liked it, to say nothing 💕 shooting inside is prohibited, they did not violate it, you can't take normal photos from under the floor anyway, we thought we would review all this beauty on the Internet, but to my great amazement I did not find any! high-quality photography, at least as truthfully reflecting the beauty of interiors and chandeliers! Unfortunately. Just watch it with your own eyes! It is mandatory to visit. You can take an audio guide as a deposit, in pm in Russian.
A wonderful place for a ferry ride. Istanbul is one of my favorite cities! I advise everyone to visit there and get into the Turkish flavor

A summer elegant palace on the very shore of the Bosphorus. If you want to take a break from the hustle and bustle of Istanbul, be sure to visit and enjoy the embankment, a small but very cozy park, the interior of the palace and a large collection of unique chandeliers.
It's great and it's a place. It is one of the rare works that history has left to us. Paid parking is available at the entrance. The parking fee was 100 TL per hour.
A delightful museum! You will be able to see how the Sultan lived, his harem. His private chambers are open for viewing, even a hammam and a marble toilet room.
I advise you to come to the opening by 9.00, if a little later, you will see such a number of tourists from Asia who do not allow you to enjoy this palace.
A small palace museum, beautiful both inside and out. Cozy territory, access to the Bosphorus with a wonderful view of the bridge. They give out an audio guide.
I didn't like the music. A large warehouse of antique furniture. There is no feeling that the palace was promised, that sultans lived there. And the audio guide does not shine... He tells who gave it to him, what it is upholstered with, what kind of wood it is made of. I really want to revive the exposition.
Nicely. There weren't a lot of people in the morning. We went around everything in about an hour. The interiors are beautiful. You can't take pictures inside
This residence is undeservedly little noted in all advertisements, an excellent audio guide (free), good views, the palace itself is made a little monotonously, similar interiors everywhere, but it's worth a look
