An excellent panorama of the siege of Constantinople and descriptions of the events of that era. There is a beautiful park around, a convenient public transport hub nearby.

It is definitely not worth your money (650 lira October 2024), but for those who are interested in the story of the capture of Constantinople in an interactive format, I can recommend you to visit. We combined a visit to the panorama with a walking route along the walls of Constantinople and the fortress of Edikule. It fits perfectly into this format, as for me

I would not advise a person who does not speak Turkish or any language of the Turkic language group, the panorama will not cause any inspiration from a person of another ethno-cultural group, and it is expensive. But I liked it, I estimated the ticket price as a fee for viewing paintings (on the panorama itself it is just beautiful with a lot of details). The video presentation is extremely uninformative, a kind of Turkish analogue of films about the Neva or Kulikovo battle

First of all, this is not a museum, but an attraction to raise pride in your country. Of what is really valuable, these are several Ottoman charters and relics displayed on the upper floor at the entrance. Next, you go to the panorama hall under the dome, where you are shown a cartoon about Sultan Mehmet the Conqueror and how he captured "Istanbul" (actually Constantinople). It is impossible to understand something from this cartoon, and it is not necessary, the main thing is that Mehmet is cool and bent everyone down. And this is for 500 lire. The panorama itself is made lazily, the people are not sculpted, but painted on the wall, so you won't be able to check out the costumes.
I gave 3 points out of 5, because at the exit in the bookstore I found beautiful catalogs of mosaics from the monastery of Chora and St. Sophia, 300 lire each😊

A couple of floors with information about how Constantinople was captured, and a spectacular panorama where a light show is shown every 20 minutes. The location of the museum is next to the very wall that is being "stormed" in the museum. I can advise all history lovers

The analogue of the Borodino panorama is only for Turks. It is highly recommended for understanding the Turkish and, in particular, the Istanbul worldview. Especially if you then plan a trip along the coast with a tour of the Greek history of Asia Minor.

If you are interested in history, definitely find time to visit this place. The diorama is wonderful, the walls of Constantinople are visible from the entrance to the museum - a complete immersion.

Undoubtedly, it is worth visiting the Panorama, to see the last moments of the existence of the Eastern Roman Empire, as they say, firsthand, presenting yourself as a witness of those events, the benefit of the sound design allows you to feel even more authenticity of what you saw, well, and going outside, already in reality to contemplate the ruins of the ancient walls of Constantinople and even climb them a little)

The museum is not worth the time spent.
Tickets for locals are 80 lira, for tourists 500. We were with a child, there is no discount. There is a queue for the performance itself, you need to stand for 20 minutes among the portraits in the corridor.
The video broadcast on the dome of the museum is weak, slightly outdated graphics, voice acting in Turkish. It was not clear to a 9-year-old child interested in history.
I didn't like it.

It's a bit expensive, for just a panorama. It was possible to arrange an exhibition of weapons, as well as several floors of portraits and the panorama itself

We stood in line for 40 minutes and were notified at the cash desk that there were 50 lira for locals, and 250 for foreigners, that is, at the exchange rate at that time 1200 rubles. As a result, we were outraged and did not want to be suckers. Let them look at their own stands for that kind of money.

500 lire for foreigners and 80 lire for locals. With such prices, the museum is expected to be empty

At the entrance, I asked the guards what was interesting there and what we would see. In response, they said that there would be a historical video in Turkish. Of course they turned around and left

The panorama itself is very good and the technical equipment is at a high level. What didn't you like: 1) All information is only in Turkish, there are no audio guides 2) No factual information, no maps 3) The pathos is off the scale and the reliability of the reconstruction is questionable. 4) The main message is "we are great conquerors."

The panorama leaves much to be desired. The story presented to the audience is distorted.
Audio guides are missing.
From the outside, the building looks gloomy.

An interesting place, the panorama allows you to personally imagine the capture of Constantinople by the army of Mehmed the Conqueror. The atmosphere of those years and those events is recreated around the perimeter of the exposition. According to the principle of the diorama, the attributes of the battle are in the closest approximation, such as weapons, including cannons, bows, etc., and means of transporting guns. The viewing is accompanied by a soundtrack simulating a medieval battle. There can be a lot of people, visitors are photographed against the background of images and this makes it difficult to view.

The panorama is dedicated to a defining episode of Turkish history - the capture of Constantinople by the Turks in 1453. It consists of a painting and a diorama. Unlike other similar expositions, it is accompanied by sound effects. The domed panorama creates the feeling of being in the middle of a battle. In the panorama lobby there are stands with explanations in Turkish and English and, of course, a souvenir shop. It is allowed and even encouraged to take photos. Many municipalities of Greater Istanbul organize free city tours for everyone, which include a visit to the Panorama.

The panorama is cool, but for half an hour. Otherwise, there are a lot of stands with texts that no one will read, of course.

A well-made panorama. A beautiful painting, complemented by living objects, hand-painted scattered on the mound of earth. And all this is complemented by the sounds of battle! After leaving the panorama, you look at the walls near which it is located in a different way.
