The Topkapi Palace was the main residence of Ottoman Sultans between the 15th and 19th centuries. Visiting the palace gives a fascinating glimpse into what their lives were like during this time frame.
We arrived to the Palace early in the morning, so I was lucky to get a few photos without people in them…
The Palace is huge, so there are lots of angles to take photos from…
Topkapı is a series of pavilions, kitchens, barracks, audience chambers, kiosks and sleeping quarters built around a central enclosure.
The view from the Palace was gorgeous!
