Of course, everyone should visit! A historical place. The scale is amazing. You can't get around everything in one day. Everything is expensive and rich))) An audio guide is not interesting) take guided tours with some interesting person to tell legends and stories))) Dollars were not accepted at the checkout, so I had to look for an exchanger at 9 a.m. The entrance fee is not cheap 2t lira. But for this price, we didn't even see the Sultan's chambers ((( the most after the harem....very sorry. They were under restoration. Of course, no one notifies about this at the checkout. There are a lot of people even out of season. Groups of foreign tourists crowd the narrow corridors of the palace, even in the morning.

Topkapi Palace, a very large and cozy palace with a history of several centuries.Several Sultans of the Ottoman Empire lived here. We have long wanted to visit Istanbul with our wife. We stayed in a hotel next to the Aisofia and Sultan Ahmed Mosque (Blue Mosque). Our dream has come true, we really enjoyed our trip around Istanbul. I think we'll come back again, so we left a few places where we didn't have time to visit. To live your life and not be in Istanbul, I think it's a sin!!!

A magnificent palace! It takes 3 hours to book a visit. It is better to take a guided tour in order to get a complete picture of the exhibits and the premises. The palace is in excellent condition, it is clear that they take care of it and put a lot of work into the restoration. Our family enjoyed visiting the palace complex. Of the cons: The audio guide hardly works anywhere, it speaks in a language that is not understandable, but it does not turn on at all or stops in the middle of the narration. It's a pity that the entrance fee is 5,000 rubles per person, and 15,000 rubles for a family with a child. For some, this is an unbearable amount for a museum.
