UNESCO world heritage: Lavish Palace of the Ottoman Empire

#travellerswonderland The Topkapi palace is a must visit and one of popular tourist attractions in Istanbul. The palace showcases the wealth of the Ottoman Empire and serves as the primary residence of the rulers for more than 400 years. Today it is a museum and contains a wide collection of historical artefacts. There are more than 400 rooms here so you can imagine how big the compound is. Do look out for the legendary “Spoonmaker's Diamond,” one of the largest cut diamonds in the world among the artefacts. I would recommend getting a personal guide or audio guide to understand the history better! Address: Cankurtaran, 34122 Fatih/İstanbul, Türkiye
