What we could see was fantastic but as with many of Istanbul’s famous sights being extensively renovated
5/5 - Excellent
Verified traveller
Unfortunately, two thirds of this building is under renovation, so only a few mosaics may be viewed and none of the exterior.
3/5 - Okay
Verified traveller
The museum is in the middle of a major rennovation and more than half of it is inaccesable.
