Museum of Turkish and Islamic Arts
This Sultanahmet museum is a useful indoor stop for carpets, manuscripts and objects that add detail to the city's Islamic artistic history.
Why go
The galleries shift attention from huge buildings to the materials people made and used. Carpets reward a look at pattern and technique; manuscript and decorative objects bring the same tradition down to a smaller scale. Pair it with nearby monuments when you want context without another large architectural walk.
