A beautiful historical place. Admission is inexpensive compared to Istanbul attractions. The view from the fortress is immense. And the coolest thing is that there is a cafe downstairs, almost immediately at the entrance. It makes Turkish gazleme tortillas with different fillings, the cost is 100 liras for November 24. Be sure to try it, because in Istanbul they stand for 200, and some sell for 250 liras.
An unusual place that is worth seeing once in a lifetime, as if you are in another dimension and this is not planet earth. Balloon flights also add to the uniqueness, remember they fly only at dawn, when the weather allows, not always, but only at dawn from 7:00 to 9:00 . Do not see anyone who offers to choose the flight time. Sometimes it's more beautiful to watch from the ground than from a balloon. As a person who has been on the ball, I say this, the opinion is subjective.
I recommend it to everyone! You will be wildly delighted! Everything is done neatly and conveniently. From the top there is a great view of the surrounding area.
