Turkish and Islamic Arts Museum Fast Track Entry

The museum building used to be the grand vizier Ibrahim Pasa's house, a gift from Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent.

Over 40,000 artifacts from early Islamic empires (like the Umayyads and Abbasids) through to the Seljuks and Ottomans are displayed in the museum.

Quick Tip:

Don't forget to go to the museum's second floor terrace cafe for amazing viewpoints of the Blue Mosque and Sultanahmet Square.
