About
クイックファクト: 石の円筒を登れば、360度のパノラマが目の前に広がり、朝焼けや夜景が特に劇的に映えるよ。高さは約67メートルで、かつて見張りや灯台としても使われた歴史が感じられ、狭い螺旋階段の登り下りも記憶に残る体験になる。
ハイライト: 夜になると、1632年にヘザルフェン・アフメト・チェレビが自作の翼で飛び立ったという伝説がささやかれ、古い史料に名前が残るという事実がちょっと鳥肌ものだよ。高さ約67メートルの頂上へ続く石の螺旋階段を登れば、焼き栗の香ばしさと濃いトルココーヒーの香りが混ざり、屋上では数十人が小さな紙に願い事を書いて手すりに結ぶ風景が見られるよ。
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes, the surrounding streets are steep and cobbled and there are stairs even with elevator use.
- Head to the outdoor balcony facing the Bosphorus and Galata Bridge for the best sunset photos.
- Buy a timed-entry ticket online to avoid long lines for both tickets and the elevator.
- Skip the indoor restaurant at peak times, instead grab a nearby simit or tea and enjoy the terrace view.
