Istanbul Sapphire Observation Deck

Istanbul Sapphire is one of the tallest buildings in Europe and Turkey. The building is 260 metres in height. At a height of 231 metres, it has one of the highest observation decks in Istanbul. Observation Deck is located at the top of Sapphire Shopping Mall, where you can find famous brands and restaurants.

We are sure that you have never looked at Istanbul from this point of view. From here, you can see the Princes' Islands, the Bosphorus, Asian and European sides of the city, bridges, and even the Hagia Sophia Mosque.

The elevator to reach Istanbul Sapphire Observatory travels at an average speed of 20 kilometers per hour. When you get to the Terrace, Istanbul will be "under" your feet. There are information boards to show the distances to popular cities from around the world. You can witness the view from behind the glass.

In 2020, Camlica Tower was built to function as an Observation Deck. The tower is over 365 metres, but the observatory deck terrace is at 220 metres. It is located on the Asian side of Istanbul. Sapphire Observation Deck is located on the European side of Istanbul and is still the highest observatory in Istanbul for a view terrace.
