Don't miss that - Everything was OK. The ticket was accepted without any problems. When we arrived at the entry box-office, established that the price via tripadvisor was nearly the same - green points for tripadvisor. Very nice experience at the top regardless of the rainy weather outside. A photographer made us some photos at acceptable price - you can choose the background (Sapphire view, Cappadocia view, Bosphorus view). And don't forget the 4D skyride. It deserves. The feeling in combination with the music is great (for me personally I'd even say fantastic).

Sapphire skyscraper panorama view - Observation deck of the Sapphire skyscraper, 236m, which is located in the Levent business district. 360 degree panorama. I especially liked standing on the transparent floor. And the whole city is below you.

An Instabul view from the sky - We really had a lot of trouble finding the place. Not that we did not have the address (taxi drivers did not know about the place) and twice we were told that the building is closed. We struggled 2 hours by taxi, underground and by foot to get inside the building. The next mall down the street is also non tge wiser. BUT, when we actually made it inside the building it was fairly easy to find our way to the lift where we were supposed to be. The place is beautiful. The experience is wonderful. It is just sad that noylt a lot of people know about it!

Exceptional view of Istanbul - The observation point is located in the office area, rather far from the tourist spots. The excellent view from the fifty-third floor over the entire city, however, makes a visit a must.

Great experience - This was a great experience however the prices have seemingly risen by 30% in the last week or two and tourists are charged a different tariff/rate as displayed on the board. Probably due to this. The place was almost empty. Nice experience and views otherwise. Does get cold up there so advise jumper or coat in these months.
