Never seen anything like this place, so glad we visited. But your tickets in advance and go early as even the prepaid ticket line can get long.

I really liked it; the photos you see online don't do justice to the experience of actually being down there—it's beautifully set up.

The entry was quick and easy and the views from the tower are spectacular. ❤️ I totally recommend it even if you are scared of heights, the external fence is high enough, so there's no need to worry.

First, the time of day. We chose the evening, when the whole city is lit up. At this time of day and of year, there are very few people around, and there are no lines for the elevators. Once we got to the top, the lack of crowds allowed us to take our time and enjoy ourselves while taking photos.

Quick guidance, simple and useful explanations. Spacious, at least a 3-hour visit. Lots to see, besides the harem, there are attractions in every area.

A wonderful experience of whirling dervish dance from an authentic group of artists in Istanbul. The entire experience was well laid out and explained in the start. The artists perform music for about 45 minutes while the actual dance lasts 20 minutes with a few breaks. I was in awe at the amount of stamina the artists must have to be able to keep whirling 50-100 turns continuously without feeling giddy. The experience for them is meant to take them close to God and nature. Whirling and chaotic - like the planets, wind, water etc.
