Topkapı Sarayının İngilizce Tanıtımı

The Topkapı Palace is a palace in Istanbul

Turkey

which was the official and primary residence in the city of the Ottoman Sultans for 400 years of their 600-year reign

from 1465 to 1856.

The palace was a setting for state occasions and royal entertainments and is a major tourist attraction today

containing the most holy relics of the Muslim world such as the prophet Muhammed's cloak and sword. Topkapı Palace is among those monuments belonging to the "Historic Areas of Istanbul"

which became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1985

and is described in Criterion iv as "the best example[s] of ensembles of palaces [...] of the Ottoman period."

Initial construction began in 1459

ordered by Sultan Mehmed II

the conqueror of Byzantine Constantinople. The palace is a complex made up of four main courtyards and many smaller buildings. At the height of its existence as a royal residence

the palace was home to as many as 4

000 people

formerly covering a larger area with a long shoreline. The complex has been expanded over the centuries

with many renovations such as after the 1509 earthquake and 1665 fire. It held mosques

a hospital

bakeries

and a mint. The name directly translates as "Cannon gate Palace"

from the palace being named after a nearby

now destroyed

gate.

Topkapı Palace gradually lost its importance at the end of the 17th century

as the Sultans preferred to spend more time in their new palaces along the Bosporus. In 1856

Sultan Abdül Mecid I decided to move the court to the newly built Dolmabahçe Palace

the first European-style palace in the city. Some functions

such as the imperial treasury

the library

mosque and mint

were retained though.

After the end of the Ottoman Empire in 1921

Topkapı Palace was transformed by government decree on April 3

1924 into a museum of the imperial era. The Topkapı Palace Museum is under the administration of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism. The palace complex has hundreds of rooms and chambers

but only the most important are accessible to the public today. The complex is guarded by officials of the ministry as well as armed guards of the Turkish military. The palace is full of examples of Ottoman architecture and also contains large collections of porcelain

robes

weapons

shields

armor

Ottoman miniatures

Islamic calligraphic manuscripts and murals

as well as a display of Ottoman treasure and jewelry.
