The Venue
Beylerbeyi Palace — Asian Shore, Istanbul
Beylerbeyi Palace, constructed in 1865 on the Asian shore of the Bosphorus. Access is arranged through a formal cultural partnership with the Turkish Ministry of Culture and Tourism.
This experience is rooted in Istanbul's Ottoman heritage — a city where imperial architecture still holds the memory of the ceremonies and rituals that shaped an empire. Beylerbeyi Palace stands as a physical archive of that world, preserved in stone and gilt — Istanbul.
