Çıragan Palace
When I learned that my family and I were
going to travel to Instanbul, Turkey, the first
thing that came to my mind was having tea at
Ciragan Palace!
This former residence of the Sultan is
extremely elegant, especially its surroundings
and lavish decor. It is situated on the European
shores of the Bosphorus. Dignitaries and
celebrities are drawn to the architectural
beauty and services, allowing the palace to be
a favorite.
The Gazebo Lobby Lounge offers guests
afternoon tea while overlooking the
Bosphorus. Because no reservation is required
for afternoon tea, we made sure to arrive
especially early in order to recieve good
seating. After we ordered tea, I took a moment
to look around and notice the classical columns
and the glass walls which allow you to view the
Bosphorus and the outdoor swimming pool.
With a harpist playing the background, I was
able to take tea here feeling like royalty.
After our tea, we toured the premises
(including the water'e edge) and admired its
splendor.
Tea is served from three to five o'clock.
