Overview

Beylerbeyi Palace stands on the Asian shore of the Bosphorus, quietly showing the elegant side of Ottoman history. It was built between 1863 and 1865 by Sultan Abdulaziz as a summer residence, where important guests like Empress Eugénie of France and Emperor Franz Joseph were welcomed. The palace has two main parts, the Mabeyn and the Harem. Inside, you can see glittering crystal chandeliers, soft Hereke carpets, fine porcelains, and decorations that mix Eastern and Western styles in a unique way. The marble walls, wooden ceilings, and calm sea view make it one of the most beautiful palaces in Istanbul. Don’t miss this timeless experience in one of the most graceful palaces of the Bosphorus. An audio guide is included and available in 25 languages: English, German, Russian, Persian, Arabic, French, Italian, Chinese, Dutch, Spanish, Hindi, Romanian, Ukrainian, Korean, Turkish, Bulgarian, Polish, Swedish, Japanese, Indonesian, Greek, Hungarian, Portuguese, Urdu, and Croatian.
