What to Expect
Dolmabahçe Palace - the luxurious home of the sultans
This place astonishes with its luxury. The area features a beautiful garden, while inside you will find incomparable rich interiors. You will explore the palace, harem, gates to the Bosphorus, magnolia trees, artificial ponds, cafes, and much more beauty.
Ortaköy Mosque - the city's landmark
This is one of Istanbul's symbols, resembling a sultan's palace - crystal chandeliers, pink mosaic, and marble interior. In the 19th century, the mosque dazzled the world with its dazzling beauty to the extent that sultans from the other shore specially sailed here for prayers.
Arnavutköy - Albanian village and Angel City
I will tell you about the Albanian village - the literal translation of the name of the prestigious yet little-known district of Istanbul, Arnavutköy. Until the 19th century, it was called Khorasman, meaning the city of angels.
You will see the promenade with white yachts, colorful houses, stylish cafes, art galleries, and handicraft shops. And I will also show you a staircase from which a splendid view of Turkey’s largest mosque opens up.
