Best places: Historical landmarks in Beyoğlu, Turkey

👍👍 I made a same day appointment using the live chat functionality because I didn’t see any available appointments online. They were very accommodating and were able to get me in.

Elegant set of 19th-century art nouveau stairs en route to the Galata Tower, popular for photos.

Originally part of an Ottoman palace, this domed pavilion features richly decorated rooms & gardens.

Historic passageway between 2 streets, featuring ornate architecture, shops & cafes.
