The Museum of Turkish and Islamic Arts in Istanbul offers visitors a chance to lose themselves in the details of hand-lettered and illustrated copies of the Quran, handwoven carpets, and many other exquisite artefacts from Islamic civilisations.
Comprising three buildings, the Istanbul Archaeological Museums, the first museum of the Ottoman Empire, welcomes visitors to view Greek and Roman sculptures, sarcophagi, mummies, china, clay tablets, the world’s oldest love poem and more.
