Currently (Winter 2019) undergoing major rennovation so not all sections are open

A lot of it closed due to restoration, also very difficult to get back from as no taxis
4/5 - Good
Verified traveller
Must see. Easy T1 street car changing. TO T4 . A few glimpses of Bysantian glory and barbarous destraction by invades.
3/5 - Okay
steve
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.
