Points included in this audio guide
Quiosco de los Azulejos (Çinili Köşk)
Built in 1472 by Sultan Mehmed II as a pleasure pavilion, the Çinili Köşk is the oldest surviving non-religious Ottoman building in Istanbul. It now houses the Museum of Islamic Art, with a fine collection of İznik tiles and Seljuk ceramics.
Sala de los Sarcófagos de Sidón (Salas VIII y IX)
Rooms VIII and IX house the royal sarcophagi from the necropolis at Sidon — the most celebrated pieces in the entire complex. Found on the ground floor, to the left of the entrance lobby, they are the museum's centrepiece.
Galería de Arqueología Clásica
The Classical Archaeology Gallery occupies the main building and forms the museum's most celebrated collection, featuring Greek, Roman and Phoenician sculpture and sarcophagi — most notably the royal tombs from the Sidon necropolis.
Exposición de Troya
Located on the second floor, the Troy Exhibition recreates aspects of the ancient city's archaeological excavations through stratigraphic replicas and period documentation. Its most famous absent exhibit is the so-called 'Treasure of Priam'.
Sala del Tratado de Qadesh
This room houses the Qadesh Treaty tablet — the oldest known written peace agreement — displayed rather discreetly, almost tucked away in a corner of the ancient Near Eastern art collection.
Colección de Azulejos y Cerámicas Turcas
Housed in the Çinilli Pavilion, the oldest surviving non-religious Ottoman building in Istanbul, this collection's finest piece is the Karaman Mihrab — a blue mihrab clad in decorative tiles.
