A Dream on the Water

The mosque is free to enter, and scarves & skirts are available outside the entrance at no cost.

This spot is packed on weekends, especially with wedding photoshoots. For a quiet, crowd-free photo, visit early on a weekday.

Seagulls love simit (Turkish bagels) - hold one up, and they’ll flock to you for the perfect shot!

The Ortaköy waterfront is worth visiting for its stunning mosque and the famous kumpir (stuffed potatoes) and waffles sold nearby.
