Galata Tower (Galata Kulesi) – an iconic symbol of Istanbul
Galata Tower is one of the key structures defining Istanbul’s skyline. It is considered one of the world’s oldest towers and also one of Istanbul’s most iconic symbols. Galata Tower was included in UNESCO’s World Heritage List in 2013. If you only have a short time in Istanbul, I highly recommend visiting Galata Tower in addition to a Bosphorus cruise.
