Khedive Palace

  Khedive Palace, also known as Çırağan Palace, sits along the Bosphorus in the Beşiktaş district of Istanbul. Built in the late 19th century, it was originally commissioned by the Khedive of Egypt as a lavish residence. Today, this former palace serves as a luxury hotel, allowing guests to experience its rich history while enjoying modern amenities. If you're visiting in April, you might be lucky enough to see the beautiful tulips in bloom in the surrounding gardens. Visitors can explore the impressive architecture and dine at the on-site restaurants, all while soaking in the stunning views of the Bosphorus Strait.
