    Not very well-known our very crowded. A nice place to visit in Istanbul it gives you a very good insight into the photography world of Turkey. Beautiful and very relaxing, I really enjoyed this place.  more »

  • By Vladimir Michalec
    Great exhibition about history of Turkish photography, also got great Istanbul street photos displayed. We were there alone so had a nice time looking and the photos and discussing them. If you are into photography defintely take a look (tickets were 3 TL)

    Very simple style museum and yet excellent photographs
  • By Anja Novaković
    Great place, very nice photographs! I like it very much.
  • By Alessio Mavri
    Beautiful permanent exhibition. Entrance fee is only 3TL, less then 0,5€.
  • By JP Spicer-Escalante
    This museum is a rare find akin to a jewel that has yet to be discovered...It not only has a complete history of photography in Turkey, but also special collections that are outstanding. The fee to get in does not begin to reflect the quality of its holdings and special exhibitions. This is a must for anyone who appreciates good photography, in Turkey or anywhere, for that matter.
