Iznik Museum

Reviewed By MileRay - Istanbul, Turkey

As other reviewers have already written, the museum is closed for an indefinite time, which is really frustrating for those interested in archaeology. Still, you can catch a glimpse of some magnificent marble sarcophagi in the garden through the fences. If you have a day at Iznik and you like ancient ruins, take a look at the walls and gates, or get away of the town and see Berber Rock, the tombs or the Roman obelisk (called Bestas or Dikilitas by locals).

Nicaea

Reviewed By Bruce H - Antalya, Turkey

A small town still surrounded by the original city wall.
Unfortunately, the museum is under renovation until 2018.
We visited on our own and found it easy to located the historic sites of interest using the local city plan (map). After parking close to the Museum site we had no trouble walking around the town. Be aware that many of the streets are cobble stone, so watch your step.

CandarlI Ibrahim Pasa Turbesi

Reviewed By Nafiz Y - Istanbul, Turkey

Kendisi, Osmanlı tarihinde önemli rol oynayan ünlü " Çandarlı " soyunun kurucusudur.
Ziyaret edeceğiniz yer ise, İznik'in trafiğe kapalı ana caddesi üzerinde, demir parmaklılıkla çevrilmiş,
dikkatle bakılmaz ise farkedilmeden önünden geçilecek kadar küçük, muhtemelen 30 m2 lik bir Hazire ( kabristan ) 'dir.
Mezar taşları ve düzeni düzgündür. İşçilikleri güzeldir. Ama kabir üstlerinde ki " ayrık otları " temizlenmediğinden, kısmen bakımsız görünmektedirler.
■ Sizin için Tarih Yazarlarından Notlar:
Çandarlı İbrahim Paşa, İstanbul’un fethi esnasında, muhasaranın ( kulatmanın ) kaldırılmasını tavsiye ettiğinden dolayı ve ayrıca rüşvet aldığı şüphesi ile, hemen fethi'nin akabinde Fatih Sultan Mehmed'in emri sonrası, önce gözlerine " mil çektirilmiş " ( kör edilmiş ) bilahare de idamına hükmedilmiş ilk Osmanlı veziridir.
 
Hayrettin Paşa ile Ali Paşa'nın mezar taşlarının işçiliği emsalsizdir. Mezar taşlarının üzerinde Farsça girift yazılar tam bir sanat harikasıdır.
