This episode covers:
01. TOPKAPI PALACE AND HAREM
For 400 years, Topkapı Palace was the center of Ottoman empire. Among all the myths and stories that surround this place, one thing is certain: you have not seen Istanbul until you have seen Topkapı.
02. DOLMABAHÇE PALACE
Home to 6 sultans and the founder of the Turkish Republic, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, this is largest mono-block palace in Turkey. Built to belie the military and financial decline of the Ottoman Empire, Istanbul’s first European-style palace was an opulent one, excessive in size and filled with gold and crystal.
