This is not only an architectural element, but also a real historical landmark. Its elegant facade with details and the majestic clock mechanism, which continues to work, add a special charm to the entire complex of the palace. It is worth paying attention to the beautiful area around, where you can take great pictures while enjoying the views of the Bosphorus. The atmosphere here is peaceful and even a little mystical, especially in the evening, when the tower is illuminated and creates the feeling of a fairy tale.

Externally, the Dolmabahce Palace is beautiful, inside it is expensive and rich, most of all the chandeliers and glass floor candelabra were impressed and admired. Excellent art gallery with paintings by Aivazovsky. It's a pity that you can't film anywhere inside.

You definitely need to get to Dolmabahce! The tower, the palace, and the mosque nearby are all worthy of attention. The tower resembles our bell towers, but it is a sentry. There are baccarat crystal chandeliers in the palace of breathtaking beauty.

The tower itself is impressive. But the castle makes an impression, it's very beautiful, there are a lot of household items, everything is in excellent condition. They are not allowed to shoot in the castle, but sometimes it works secretly)))

A pleasant place, near the Bosphorus, mosque, marina. It's nice to walk there on a sunny day. And in the cafe you can enjoy delicious treats with a view of the Bosphorus.

It's very beautiful, just like the palace itself. The first time I came, I just walked around the "free" area and saw the tower at the entrance. But I still recommend a visit with the palace.

The entrance to the palace for tourists is very expensive, does not justify its cost (1,500 liras ~ a little more than 3,000₽ in April 2025), you can not take photos or videos inside, and there is not much to look at, only at the exit you can admire one hall and that's it. The tour lasts a maximum of 25 minutes. The palaces of Peterhof, the Hermitage, Tsarskoye Selo, etc. were nowhere near! Sorry for the money spent

They definitely recommend visiting the Dolmobahce Palace. The beautiful park on the shore of the Bosphorus in the warm season causes incredible emotions.

A magnificent palace! Chandeliers, crystal stairs! You need to put in at least 4 hours to walk around the palace calmly, listening to the audio guide. By the way, don't forget to take it at the entrance in front of the gate. They don't talk about it at the checkout. A document / license or passport is taken as collateral. Take a walk in the garden, turn gray in a cafe and enjoy the atmosphere, live the emotions of what you saw.

It is possible to enter the clock tower and clock tower cafe located at the first entrance without a ticket, it can only be entered through security and seen, the cafe can be used. May May 2025; domestic full 200tl, student 100tl, foreign 2200tl-very expensive), entrance to the museum is free (the greeting section also requires a fee), direct entry is possible without stopping at the ticket office, those who do not have a museum card buy tickets from the box office (in May 2025, domestic full 200tl, student 100tl, foreigner 2200tl-very expensive) There are 4 adat cafes in the campus, each of them is beautiful, it was a very nice idea, the prices are at an average level. I think those who are going to visit Istanbul should definitely see

The tower simply attracts with its view, it is located up to the ticket offices surrounded by a small park where you can hide from the sun on a hot day. And if, for some reason, you are wondering whether it is worth going further to inspect the palace, the chapel should finally dissuade you, because it is 1/100 of the beauty that awaits you ahead!

A beautiful tower that can be seen even if you do not enter the palace for a fee! The only thing that makes you sad is the proximity to the roadway ! And the crowds of tourists all around

I liked everything here, this attraction is far from the main ones, plan for the last day. A very interesting place, then the palace. Be sure to take Russian-speaking guide headphones, they are free and included in the ticket price and go ahead.

Nicely. Powerful. Authentic. I recommend you to visit. You can buy an all-inclusive ticket and walk through all the parks, museums and halls, or you can go separately to one museum, garden and walk through it to the gate to the Bosphorus.

A very beautiful place for a photo. There is a palace and a magnificent gate nearby. Vodafone Stadium. There is a parking lot and a cafe with its own embankment, the prices are affordable. The view of Istanbul at night is fantastic and the same view of the bridge over the Bosphorus. A must-visit for everyone.

It's a beautiful palace, but it's for an amateur. The interior is decorated in a very European way, you can not take pictures, the building is a box, there is nowhere to walk in the park. Admission is $50, beautiful, but not wow. There is a marina nearby, you can go boating

A very beautiful place, architecture, well-groomed territory, everything is at the highest level. I have not watched Turkish TV series and learned about this attraction from Yandex. I did not regret that I went, there is something to see both the palace itself and the harem and the area around it is fantastic)))

It will not be possible to quickly go around and see everything in half an hour in the palace. Plan to spend the whole day there. The park and surroundings are very cozy. There are many places where you just want to stand and enjoy the view of the Bosphorus and the well-kept garden. Take your time and get real pleasure

An amazing place! I strongly advise you to spend time and money on exploring this attraction! The buildings and the surrounding area are in excellent condition, there are signs everywhere, several toilets, several cafes on the territory. When buying an entrance ticket, a free audio guide is provided, it is in Russian, it is very interesting to listen. Everything is thought out, good transport accessibility. I spent 4 hours there with great pleasure!

Awesome place 🔥 At the cash desks, you can pay with cards (not the Russian Federation) and cash. We haven't seen any exchangers nearby! There is Wi-Fi on the territory, you can't shoot inside, but if you really want to, then you can do it under cover! Free audio guide, after the turnstile on the right. There are a lot of benches in front of the entrance to take a break! The entrance on 03.10.2023 cost 650 TL.
