Why go
Views and history becomes concrete at Sarayburnu through its setting. The relationship at Sarayburnu between the headland frames the meeting of the Bosphorus, Golden Horn and Sea of Marmara and views connect Topkapı's wooded edge with ferries and the Asian shore gives Sarayburnu a distinct place in a selective Istanbul day.
What to look for
