The palace was amazing! So much detail, and gold and crystal, just wow! They have a giant crystal chandelier that weighs 4 tons!
We toured the Palace and the Harem, both were neat, but I liked the Harem tour because there was a guy in our group that looked like Andy Serkis. Sadly they don't allow pictures inside, but here are some snaps of the outside.

The side
Hey! We were there!
What is that on top of the gate??
Oh, hi random seagull!
The
palace is only 150 years old (only!), but the beloved Ataturk lived
there for five years, and it was also the residence of six Sultans.
The palace is right on the water (you might be able to click on the picture and in large it)
