installations are uncaptivating but some painters make you look at their work and enjoy it. Of course exhibits change frequently, so my impression is irrelevant. Great vista deck and cafeteria, the art is not smashing, but enjoyable for the most part. lots of security, cameras...More

For all of those who have a passion for art, Istanbul Modern Museum should be on your list of museums to visit. From what I understand the exhibitions are temporary. The art within is interesting and it will take some time to go through everything...More

Easily accessible via the tram, the lesser visited Modern Art is one of my favorite museums in Istanbul. Upon approaching the entrance, a security guard escorted me to the proper entrance, which alone was inspirational--before the ticket area is the museum library decorated creatively with...More

This museum offers a wide variety of artistic expressions, from performances to installations, Istanbul Modern never disappoints. A coffee or lunch at their restaurant facing the Bosphorus is always a nice way to end your visit.

This is the one of the attractive places in Istanbul if you like art, food, and view. You can always find something good to see from permanent and temporary exhibitions of the museum. For instance, a must-see current attraction (June, 2017) includes a selection of...More

Sitting pretty with an age-old air about it, Karakoy
is situated on the European side of the Bosphorus at
the mouth of the Golden Horn. Perhaps the city’s most
historically significant area, it’s currently one of
the most happening parts of town as well. Here street
vendors and alfresco fish restaurants line the banks
of the Horn where the views of major attractions
across the water rival Karakoy’s own key attractions,
