Visit the Galata Tower, a historic 14th-century structure in Istanbul. Once a watchtower and prison, this Genoese masterpiece now serves as a monument to the city's history.

Explore the lower levels of the tower and enjoy views from the 7th-floor windows. Although the top floor is being renovated, you can still get scenic views of Istanbul, from the Bosphorus to the city's skyline.
