An independent small tower, you can see it very conspicuously on the cruise ship in the Bosphorus Strait, or you can visit it on the tower alone. It is a very interesting attraction. If you have enough time, you might as well go and see it.

There is a Maiden's Tower on a small island at the southern entrance of the Bosphorus Strait. It has a history of more than 2,000 years. The island is 200 meters off the coast of Uskudar in Asia. The interior of the tower has been transformed into a cafe and restaurant, where you can enjoy the views of Istanbul on both sides of the strait. Tourists can take a boat to the tower several times a day.

Cross the Eurasian Bridge and arrive at the Asian shore. There are a lot of cars and pedestrians. Enjoy the beautiful European sea view of Istanbul. The Maiden's Tower is a Baroque lighthouse. It stands on a small island near the Asian mainland in the Bosphorus Strait. Because of the beautiful love story of Hero and Leandros in Greek legend, the Maiden's Tower has become one of the most romantic symbols. The store covers the stairs with a thin blanket and allows tourists to sit on the mats to enjoy the sunset, the stars, and the fish swimming in the clear and transparent sea. The ships are shuttling back and forth with horns. The busy life never stops. The breeze blowing from the sea is so leisurely.

In the evening, I was on a cruise ship in the Bosphorus Strait. I really stayed outside the cabin in January. I couldn’t get my mobile phone. It was dark in winter. I didn’t go to the island to drink coffee when I went back and forth in the Girls Tower. The legend of the Girls Tower is similar to a fairy tale. The king is afraid that a prophecy will kill the princess. Put the princess on the tower, but still can't avoid fate~ Now it is a hall, you can use it on the island

During a tour of the Bosporus Strait in Istanbul, a tower at sea attracted the attention of tourists. Only when they asked the guide did they know that it was the "Girl Tower". It is a beacon on the Bosporus Strait, originally for military purposes, but in the turn of the century, it is stained with sad romance. Legend has it that the king shut her up in an isolated lighthouse to protect her daughter, but the curse inevitably came true, and the princess remained in the lighthouse forever. It's so sad and tragic. Now, the lighthouse is a restaurant.
