If you also like the architecture of Istanbul, then you must arrange to visit the new Palace of Istanbul, the new palace of Dolmabahce Palace, this new palace cost the Ottoman Empire a billion marks, it is really beautiful. Located in the European part of the western bank of the Bosphorus, it stretches over 600 meters and was started in 1843 and completed in 1856. Domabach means "garden made from reclaimed sea".


It is said that the palace was built during the decline of the Ottoman Empire, but it also invested a lot of money in foreign debt!

Domabachsin Palace is a representative of court life during the Ottoman Empire, covering an area of 7,000 hectares, with 43 halls, 70 bathrooms and 285 rooms. The stone used came from the Sea of Marmara, Egypt and Bergamon, and the decoration and lighting were designed by French and Italian designers of the time. In order to decorate the palace, a lot of gold and silver were spent, and there were many rare treasures made of ivory, gold, jewelry and so on.

The new palace and the old palace are completely different architectural styles: thorough "European"; Further, it is a complete return or "surrender" to the European neoclassical aesthetic taste.


The entrance to the temple was behind an ornate, very classical bell tower. The whole palace is actually a grand edifice, three stories long and lined up facing the Bosphorus; The garden fence is close to the water, step out of the fence gate, you can swim directly in the sea by boat. From any window or terrace facing the sea, you can easily enjoy the vast Sea of Marmara, and you can also overlook the clouds of the old city...


The interior of the new palace was so extravagant that I was dazzled to see it, and the last palace was even more shocking to my jaw, comparable to the dome of the Sistine Chapel. The tall, delicate, four-sided columns of Rome are extraordinary. I stopped breathing on the way in! The interior is full of royal families from all over the world, and there are countless treasures, especially the treasure of the town palace crystal lamp, which is fully 5 tons, which is the second largest crystal lamp in the world. In the palace, guests can see many treasures of aristocratic life, such as gems, MEDALS, jewelry, porcelain, fabrics, famous paintings and so on. Antique furniture, tapestries and furnishings, a variety of artworks here concentrated in traditional and modern styles. Baroque and Rococo style interwoven Gothic architecture is very obvious!


The garden and the interior are very large, and every shot is a sense of painting, at least for half a day! The palace is full of luxury and dazzling treasures. But the palace is not very easy to photograph! Holding the headset while listening and watching for nearly two hours, I was very shocked by the construction process and luxury materials, ivory, crystal lamps, gold products everywhere!

📷 The inside of the new palace is not allowed to take photos, so there is no way to shoot the inside of the complete luxury to everyone, but also to see the real shock!

🎫 Admission: 1050 lira, not included in Museum Pass.
There are two main places to visit: 1 Palace + collection, 2 art museums

When you come out and then turn in from the other end of the building, there is also a National Palace painting museum. In the museum you can see a variety of paintings from the Ottoman period, I have selected a few: the fall of Constantinople by land boat, the coronation of Saint Sophia, the Sultan, Istanbul Bosblos Strait, the Tower of GALATA, the Blue Mosque and the Egyptian obelisk in the square near Sofia.

🌊 Istanbul Sea Gate
But the outdoor Istanbul Sea gate is very good to photograph, located in the Dolmabacheshin Palace, facing the Bosphorus, I think no one will refuse such a view, it is so beautiful, travel to Turkey here must visit See the end, near the beach are jellyfish! If you go to the palace in the sun at noon, you can visit the interior first, and then take photos at the gate after noon.
