Azapkapı Çeşmesi
Azapkapı Çeşmesi stands in Beyoğlu, Istanbul, at the foot of Atatürk Bridge, amid the district’s busy urban setting. The Ottoman fountain is also known as the Saliha Sultan Fountain. Its marble surfaces and ornamental motifs give the structure the detailed appearance associated with the Tulip Age.
Built during the Tulip Age, it reflects a period of Ottoman cultural flourishing and artistic experimentation. Elaborate marble work rewards a close look. Atatürk Bridge stands beside it, placing Ottoman craftsmanship within Beyoğlu’s bustling urban landscape.
