Topkapı Sarayı Gezi Haritası (Rusça) Salih Gülen

Formerly called the Saray-i Amire (Imperial Palace), the Topkapi Palace was built in 1459 on the old Byzantine city. The Topkapi Palace was the residence of Ottoman sultans and, at the same time, the administrative center for almost four centuries until 1830s. The treasure kept in the Topkapi Palace is world-famous. But more importandy, the archives section is a prominent source of information for world history. The Mosque of the Aghas is a rich Renaissance library that hosts more than 22,000 manuscripts in Turkish, Arabic, Persian, Latin, Greek, Armenian, Hungarian and Slavic languages. One of the first places to be visited in the palace is the kitchens; part of a 12,000 piece Chinese porcelain collection, unrivaled in the world, is displayed here. The Divan-i Humayun (Imperial Council), also called Kubbealti (literally "under the dome"), is the pavilion where the empire was run. The Arz Odasi (Authence Chamber) is the hall where the sultan accepted foreign ambassadors and statesmen. The first building constructed was what we call the Fatih Kiosk which is used as the treasury exhibition today. Sultan Mehmet the Conqueror used this building and had the interior walls adorned with rare porcelain tiles and magnificent framed calligraphic inscriptions. The Pavilion of the Sacred Relics is the most meaningful section of the Palace and it is really worth seeing some of the personal belongings of the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him. Another place we recommend you visit is the imperial clothing in the Seferli quarters (Imperial Wardrobe) at the Enderun Courtyard. Besides this, we recommend you stroll pleasurably through the palace gardens, give attention to every corner and stand before the scenic view opening out to the Marmara Sea and the Golden Horn. The Baghdad Kiosk and Mecidiye Kiosk to the east are located here.
