The main entrance to Topkapi Palace, the Palace of the Ottoman Turks from the 1400s to the 1800s or so. You can sort of picture the old Ottoman sultans skulking around the grounds in their colorful kaftans. The place continues to have a feel of tremendous wealth and power. It also boasts a breath-taking exhibit of jewels that puts the crown jewels in Britain to shame!
