Best places: History museums in Marmara Region

👍👍 I lived in Australia and New Zealand for a few years and Gallipoli is almost a founding myth in those respective countries. It was fascinating to come here and see the place and battle(s) I heard so much about. What was really interesting was also to see it from Ottoman/Turkish perspective. What's a...

Wooden square-shaped mansion owned by Atatürk with a columned terrace overlooking the Marmara Sea.

Futuristic dome with a 360-degree image depicting the 14th-century Ottoman conquest of the city.

Historical center featuring a large panoramic painting of the conquest of Constantinople.

👍👍 Superhuman is proud when it comes out, but your monument needs some maintenance

Refined museum of military history & cultural heritage from the Ottoman period of 1453 to 1923.

👍👍 It is an original classical period Ottoman structure by Mimar Sinan. It is one of the few examples of madrasahs that are unusual in terms of their octagonal centrally planned room arrangement and courtyard relationships.

👍👍 It is located in the naval museum. It has been reproduced faithfully to the original. There is a map image describing the throat war in it and I would definitely recommend you to watch it. You can also tour the living area.

👍👍 It can be reached after a steep incline of about 1km from the main street. It has achieved an incredibly beautiful landscaping thanks to the works carried out in recent years. Mosque and the tomb of Ede Bali Hz after about 80 stairs A magnificent view and a spiritual atmosphere No parking problems T...

👍👍 Perfect turquoise waters (you could see it from the ancient ruins above), but the road is closed due to a landslide and will continue to be so for almost 1.5 years (It's been only 4 months now since the beginning of excavations). 😔

Displays chronicling Islamic advances in science & technology, set in former royal horse stables.

The remaining outer facade of a 13th-century palace built for the son of a Byzantine emperor.

👍👍 Allah bana bir defa daha gidebilme şansı verir inşallah ... Bu ülkede hiç bir yerde yazlık istemem burası hariç.. üç beş ev var ama nasıl da insancıl lar ❣️ denizin ortasında dans ediyorlar eşlik edin.. evinizde gibi rahat edin.. deniz turkuaz kaş halt etmiş yaninda..balık gırla at çek misali .. gec...

👍 A museum whose value was realized much later, and which has just received the attention it deserves. The Kiosk, which we couldn't even see up close because I lived very close to it and there was an army house nearby. The people of Izmit know it as Abdulaziz's hunting lodge. It also hosted Atatürk a...

👍👍 We visited the place for lunch during a mid week work days and hence, no waiting was experienced. In brief, I’ll come back and repeat the visit. The place is full of history and the working team is doing a great job in welcoming and serving the guests with all needs. The food came complete with p...

👍👍 Its located in a historic Turkish bath (hamam), now well and carefully restored and reconstructed. The collection showing a wide range of typical local ceramics produced within the last 100 years. At upper floor there was a exhibition of recend artistc pottery with several excellen pieces forsale. W...

👍👍 It is medium sized but a huge tour through history... I say huge because it took me from the earliest known history to the last great Balkan migrations... As a Balkan immigrant, it touched me very much, it took me to the migration I experienced traumaticly when I was a child, I wish I wish it was a...

👍 Dış çevre de aşırı ot çıkmış. Rehber ve anlatan görevliler sıradan insanlardan seçilmiş. Hiç tarihle ve tabya ile bilgisi olmayan personel var. Tabyanın güzelliği ve doğası korunmaya çalışılarak restore etmeye çalışmışlar. Ama başarılı olmuş mu, şüpheli. Tabya içine duvarlara o dönemi temsilen gaz l...

👍👍 Very Very Peaceful.... Historical Place....

👍 I like a place worth going with my family. Boat. Aeroplane. Museum. Very nice.
