Exquisite display of more than a 100 masterpieces, along with the photographs and a thorough biography of the master himself. Stroll around, buy a catalogue and take a break in a museum cafeteria – it`s actually the famous C`hanga restaurant. The museum itself is a a part of Sabanci University, owned by wealthy Sabanci family; situated in Emirgan, and has a splendid view of Bosphorus. A whole-day excursion would be a day to remember.
