Kilitbahir Castle

Reviewed By Ergun_Talu - Istanbul, Turkey

For me Kilitbahir Caste & Fortifications with its central tower really is the most interesting place to visit in the historical Gallipoli area. Pls go up the Tower floor by floor to see the beautiful exhibitions of old time people living in Castle. Like Tussaud's Wax Museum.

Bozcaada Kalesi

Reviewed By inflexible85 - Canakkale, Turkey

The castle located in the center of Bozcaada and attracting you with its magnificent appearance while approaching Bozcada. It is surrounded by a moat on the other hand, which is leaning on one side to the sea, and you enter the castle by passing through a bridge over this moat. The entrance to the castle is paid and the museum card is not valid. The area of ​​the castle is very large and you have a hard climbing and hiking. You can also enter the rooms that are not well-organized and see the amphoras here. Taking photos in the small window on the tower is very popular on social media. You have to pay attention to the stairs when you get up and down here. There is no clear information about who first built Bozcaada Castle, one of the best preserved castles in our country, but it was used by Genoese, Phoenicians and Venetians. It also took its present form in 1455 during the reign of Fatih Sultan Mehmet. Renovations were also made in 1657 and 1815. In the garden of Bozcaada Castle, concerts and movie nights are organized in summer time. It must be on the list of things to do in Bozcaada.
