Topkapı

Issue IV of a travel magazine series from Türkiye. For nearly four centuries Topkapı Palace was the home of the Ottoman sultans. This issue goes inside the Harem, past the quarters of the halberdiers who guarded it, into the Queen Mother's apartment, the domed Imperial Hall and the sultan's private rooms, along the Golden Road, and on to the Sacred Trusts, the Treasury and the terrace above the Bosphorus.

24 pages of photographs taken on 12 October 2026, arranged hour by hour in the order we walked, with history drawn from the information panels at the site. Designed with a classical Greek-key motif throughout.
