Istanbul Crafts Centre

Istanbul Crafts Center is a unique place in the heart of the Sultanahmet district, where traditional Turkish crafts come to life before your eyes.

Located in a restored historic madrassa, the center offers a fascinating journey through a variety of Turkish art forms - from calligraphy and illumination to paper marbling and porcelain painting.

Each room is dedicated to a different art form, where you can watch the masters at work and admire their craftsmanship. It's an ideal oasis of calm compared to the bustling streets surrounding nearby Ayasofya.
