Vođena tura palače Topkapi uz kartu za preskakanje reda

Palača Topkapi nalazi se u povijesnoj četvrti Sultanahmet u Istanbulu. Najlakši način da dođete do nje je da se vozite linijom T1 tramvaj i izađete na stanici Sultanahmet. Od tamo vas dijeli kratka šetnja preko Trga Sultanahmet.

Fotografiranje je dopušteno u vanjskom dvorištu i vrtovima palače. Međutim, fotografiranje je zabranjeno u određenim područjima unutar palače, kao što je odjel Svete relikvije. Molimo vas da poštujete znakove upozorenja. Ako niste sigurni, obratite se osoblju.

Vođena tura po palači Topkapi traje približno jedan sat. Nakon završetka ture slobodni ste nastaviti istraživati palaču samostalno; nije potrebno izlaziti. Većina posjetitelja provede dodatnih 2 do 3 sata lutajući palačom u opuštenom ritmu. Ako želite vidjeti svaki dio u detalje, uključujući Harem, Carsku riznicu i vrtove palače, preporučujemo da ukupno odvojite oko 4 sata kako biste u potpunosti uživali u iskustvu.
