The Fourth Court

Corridors connect the third court to the fourth which contains mainly pavilions surrounded by gardens. The only wooden pavilion in the palace, the Baghdad and Revan Kioks and finally the Mecidiye Kiosk, the last structure added to The Topkapi Palace, are inside this court. The terrace by the Baghdad Kiosk is the best place to enjoy the magnificent panorama of the Golden Horn and across it, the Galata Section of the city, as well as the unique skyline of Istanbul with its domes and minarets.

The pool in front of the Baghdad Pavilion and in the background is the Sunnet Pavilion.
