Hidiv Kasri is a famous landmark of Istanbul, with its unusual main tower jutting above the tree line around Cubuklu. A beautifully preserved remnant of Ottoman history and formerly the residence of the Egyptian Governor during Ottoman times, it is now open to the public, and offers a splendid restaurant for its visitors. It's a popular place for Sunday brunch. It's not the easiest place to find for tourists, but its stunning architecture and view are well worth the effort.
