Amazing History!

The visit was truly amazing! I found out a lot about the history of the Ottoman Empire, Ottoman architecture, and how and why the Ottoman Sultans moved from the Topkapi Palace to the Dolmabahce Palace. It was such an enjoyable experience. I would recommend it to anyone visiting Istanbul.
