Il palazzo è davvero meraviglioso, con vista sul mare. Mozzafiato 😍 Tuttavia, la guida è arrivata mezz'ora in ritardo perché la strada era trafficata, ma questa è una cosa che si sa: se un cliente arriva in ritardo perde i soldi, se la guida fa perdere mezz'ora al cliente non succede nulla... quando è arrivato, lui è stato molto sbrigativo, ha spiegato due cose sul giardino (che avevo già letto su Wikipedia) e poi se ne andato, per cui ho trovato la sua presenza utile solo al fine del salta-coda.

As you wander through the decorated halls, your guide will share stories of the Sultans who once walked these very grounds.

Learn about the traditions and customs of the Ottoman court, and see the intricate details of the Harem's architecture. The tour concludes at the National Paintings Museum, where you'll discover a unique collection of 19th and early 20th-century art from the Ottoman coffers.
