Rahmi M. Koç Museum
Rahmi M. Koç Museum Review
In a foundry that used to cast anchors for the Ottoman fleet, this building is now filled with steam engines, medieval telescopes, planes, boats, a submarine, a tank, trucks, trains, a horse-drawn tram, bicycles, motorbikes, and the great engines that powered the Bosphorus ferries. The wonderful and eclectic collection, on the shore of the Golden Horn, is sponsored by one of Turkey's leading industrialists. Catch one of the Haliç ferries, a bus from Sishane, or a taxi to get here.
