Its story
The pavilion was built in the mid-19th century by the family of the governors of Egypt and later presented to the Ottoman palace; it is also known as the Mecidiye Pavilion. Set in a large garden on a slope near the Bosphorus, its interiors stand out for their hand-painted decoration (kalem işi) and ceiling ornaments. Used by various institutions for a long time, the pavilion has been restored. As the visiting arrangements of the pavilion may change seasonally, it is advisable to get information in advance.
