A very large palace, we watched it for half a day. The ticket price for 1 person is 650 liras (Topkapi Palace+harem) for the month of June, 2023.

The building itself is grandiose and interesting, but as a museum it does not stand up to any criticism : (bare walls, rare sofas and that's it. No furniture or household items to somehow refresh the impression. Fantasize for yourself, in short. The harem is in the photo.

Very expensive, 1000 lire for one, I can't say that it was worth it, even if you are a fan of the series

900 lire is definitely not worth it. Dolmabahce Palace is much better and the entrance is cheaper.

It's a beautiful complex, but the price just bites 500 lire, which is about 2000 rubles per person for us. And the local 140 lira is somehow not fair!

I visited this institution in July 2021. It was a discovery for me that they don't sell a separate ticket to topkapi, now the minimum price of 200 lira includes a visit to the complex itself plus an audio guide plus a visit to St. Irene's church, which simply has nothing to do. Well, we bought it for 200 lira, went through the turnstiles, went to the tent with an audio guide, and there was a surprise, they were given only with a passport as collateral. Money or valuables are not accepted as collateral. I asked them to take money from me for a 400 re remote control, but they yelled at me!!! First in Turkish, then in English. I had to run to the hotel to get my passports, the hotel was nearby. The mood was spoiled for several days. And they went to this institution only because of the treasury, which was closed for repairs. And there's nothing to do there without her. In general, be careful when visiting this place. I really regret that I did not take off the phone of the boor who yelled at me.

Tickets are expensive at two rubles per person. Most of the palace is closed for repairs. But it's worth going in. A great collection of weapons.

The subject of my review is an amazing place. Of course, we couldn't help but visit him on the first day of our stay in Istanbul. In its lifetime, Topkapi Palace has seen so many events that it's hard to even imagine! There were important historical decisions, intrigues, palace coups, and an endless succession of ruling sultans.

A visit in January 2022 cost 275 lire per person, including a visit to the harem. Part of it is under reconstruction, but there is still something to see. It costs 200 lire without a harem, but it makes sense to take a harem. There is little luxury, but of course there is historical interest: pavilions, a library, living rooms and hamams can be viewed. An audio guide requires a passport as collateral, so keep this in mind, because it will be boring without it.

Topkapi Sarai Palace is located in Istanbul, Turkey. It is the largest palace in the Old City of Istanbul, which served as a major center of the Ottoman Empire and the center of the rule of the sultans of the Ottoman Empire for four decades, from 1465 to 1856, before Dolmabahce Palace took its place.

It is better to visit the palace complex with a guide, the audio guide gives information very dryly (the audio guide is issued on the security of a passport or driver's license). If you come to the opening (9.00), you will not have to stand in line for tickets. You can also take a walk around the deserted complex. Tourist groups and independent tourists come en masse by 11 o'clock. Be sure to check out Harem (you can start the tour with it). The church of Ayia Irina can be visited at the end of the tour, you will not be able to stay there for long.
