"The Sultan's Abode"
Although a part of the larger complex of Topkapi Palace, the Harem was the exclusive domain of the royal family, the Sultan's concubines and their protectors. The Harem was continuously expanded and altered to meet the needs of the royal family, creating a sight of beguiling beauty and architectural intrigue. As it stands today, the Harem is an amalgamation of architectural styles; a vast complex made up of numerous rooms, a hospital, mosques and baths, all centered around a splendid courtyard. Entrance to the museum does not include access to the Harem. A separate ticket must be purchased at the entrance of the museum, or near the entrance of the Harem.
