It 's hard to call it a castle , it 's just ruins . but the location is gorgeous, very atmospheric. In November 2024, due to the restoration, it was impossible even to approach the Black Sea and the fortress itself due to the restoration
A windswept fortress. There is a place to climb. From the top point you can see the queue of ships standing at the entrance to the Bosphorus. There were a lot of starved cats who fought for a piece of bread in front of me. There is a restaurant nearby with very tasty fish dishes
There is a lot of renovation in the fortress now and almost everything is closed. This did not affect ticket prices. They're still as tall as ever. (((
Parking nearby is also under reconstruction. I had to park behind the university. It's quiet there, but not too close. You can also stand up brazenly along the highway.
There is no audio guide or normal inscriptions in the fortress itself.
Shoes must be comfortable
