Overview

THE BOSPHORUS BRIDGE is one of the most significant symbols of Istanbul’s unique geography. By enabling passage between Asia and Europe, this bridge is not only vital for Istanbul but also holds global importance as a point of intercontinental connection. On one side lies the dynamic and modern face of Asia, while on the other stands the rich historical fabric of Europe.
BEYLERBEYİ PALACE, once the summer residence of the Ottoman sultans, symbolizes the grandeur of the Ottoman Empire and stands as an important part of both Turkish history and world cultural heritage. Its original furniture, impressive architecture, and exquisite gardens offer a glimpse into the luxurious lifestyle of the sultans.
ÇAMLICA HILL is one of the highest points in Istanbul and offers an unparalleled panoramic view of the city.
SHOPPING (Optional, subject to traffic conditions and possible long queues at the Palace)
