Believe us there is no exaggeration, both of them are fantastic and the idea of combining novel and museum is great. We will be talking about generic things from the novel and the museum without spoilers. This post is intended to express how much we like the museum and recommend people both reading the novel and visiting the museum who are planning to visit Istanbul sooner or later.

As locals, we all like to explore secret places (you know, this is our motto!).
