Dolmabahce Palace & Bosphorus on Boat (Full Day)

Dolmabahce Palace, which took 13 years to build, is located in Istanbul's Besiktas district. Built in the Neobaroque architectural style, this palace now serves as a museum. This palace by the Bosphorus is a masterpiece with its decorations, gardens, and hammams. This palace, which shows that the Ottoman Empire took the steps of modernization, is also the place where the founder of the Turkish Republic, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, passed away. Therefore, it is very valuable for the Turkish people.

The mosque was built for the Bezm-i Alem Valide Sultan, the mother of Abdulmecid. Decorations were inspired by the French empire style in 1852. Bezm-i Alem Valide Sultan Mosque is the first western-style mosque of the Ottoman Empire. It is also known as Dolmabahce Mosque because it is located within the borders of Dolmabahce Palace.
