The miniature versions of artifacts from Istanbul, Anatolia, and the Ottoman territories can be seen. It also featured historic structures like the Temple of Artemis at Ephesus and the Mausoleum of Maussollos at Halicarnassus (now Bodrum). 

The second stop is Pier Loti: One of the best places to see the famous Golden Horn of Istanbul is at the top of Eyup Sultan Cemetery, which is now a cafe called Pierre Loti Cafe as a memorial for the writer Pierre Loti, who was a regular of the cafe primarily for the views.

The first contemporary large aquarium in Turkey, Sea Life Akvaryum, offers visitors a unique experience and introduces a variety of underwater creatures gathered from all over the world. There are 29 different aquariums with different themes from the Mediterranean and Aegean seas. The largest of the 29 aquariums at Sea Life Akvaryum is filled with 5 million liters of water and includes an 80-meter-long acrylic underwater tunnel. The enormous observation deck with 270-degree views of the magnificent aquarium is the most impressive location.

After the aquarium tour, we depart for the Toy Museum. Sunay Akin, a Turkish poet and novelist, founded the Toy Museum in 2005. The museum opened on April 23, National Sovereignty Day, and Children's Day. Currently, the museum has on display 4,000 toys and miniatures from Turkey and abroad; many of the exhibits are antiques, some of which date back nearly 200 years.
