Through the sparkle of art
Amazing throughout experience. Not only the lamp making but also listening to the story of mosaic itself. Thank you Fatih for the class.

Unforgettable Relaxation in Istanbul
This activity was amazing start to finish. The guide even met us on the European side and escorted us to the Asian side so we could find the activity. There was tea, Turkish coffees and an explanation on the history of mosaics in Turkey. Then clear instructions on decorating the lamp. We were so pleased to take home a gorgeous good working lamp. A very fun activity to do when you feel like something nice and relaxing. Would recommend this activity to anyone.
