The palace served some Ottoman sultans and hosted many statesmen and important figures (Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, French Writer Claude Farrère). It has two floors in Neo-Classical style, European baroque style and its facade is covered with marble. The ceiling decorations of the building are the work of the French painter Sason. Its architect is Garabet Amira Balyan. The palace draws attention with its interior features as well as exterior features. Stylized rumi and palmette motifs were used in the ceiling decorations of the ground floor. The parquets in the interior are made in the Byzantine style. One of the most striking features of the building is the mirrors. These mirrors, which are similar to each other and crowned with pediments, have the characteristics of the Empire style.

Definitely a must see museum. You should definitely see this mini palace decorated with wonderful details, which hosted many valuable guests, especially Mustafa Kemal Atatürk.

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 and a famous French writer. You cannot see the decorations and craftsmanship in Dolmabahçe, they are works of art. Environmental arrangements were made recently, and two or three more historical buildings in the vicinity were restored and brought into tourism. Entrance is 12 TL and can be taken out from the box office with a museum card. A great opportunity among other nearby museums in the surrounding area. The museum can be visited in detail in about half an hour. If you want to see an Ottoman palace outside of Istanbul, the only example can be Kasrı Hümayun. If you're on your way, be sure to stop by.
