Dolmabahce Palace

Dolmabahçe Palace, located on the European shore of the Bosphorus in Istanbul, was the main administrative center of the Ottoman Empire in the 19th century.

The palace features a grand crystal staircase, an opulent ceremonial hall, and the world’s largest Bohemian crystal chandelier. It also served as the residence of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk during his final years. Today, Dolmabahçe Palace is a museum open to visitors, showcasing the splendor of the late Ottoman period.
