Directions
The Seraglio Harem: Harem-i Humayun
Having the entrance on your back, the first area that you encounter is the interior courtyard also known as the Council Square. You will notice that the courtyard is divided into four walkways. With the entrance and both securities on your back, you will see a fountain on your left next to a very old plane tree. You will take the walkway which stands on the right of the fountain and that will lead you directly to the entrance of the Harem. When you arrive there on your left you will see the ticket office of the Harem and its turnstiles. You won’t enter the Harem but you can stay there and listen to the Harem’s stories.
