Recomendamos esta actividad al 100% a todo aquel que le guste realizar manualidades. Lugar muy acogedor junto a un equipo amable. Además de poder llevarte la lámpara a casa, te ofrecen café/té junto a pequeñas pastas, así como, el viaje al lugar en caso de quedar en un punto convenido. Pequeños detalles que marcan la diferencia.

Amazing experience at the workshop! Beyzanur has been a lovely facilitator for it. Everything was explained in such a clear way and she was always available for any support. I found it very relaxing and satisfying to create my own lamp. I have now a unique souvenir from Istanbul :) I strongly recommend anyone to join. For a very cheap price you will have your own lamp, beverages and biscuits, good company and a nice memory 😊 thank you Beyzanur
