Istanbul dec 2007 1200.jpg

Immediately behind the Throne Room there is the Library of Ahmet III, 1719, it has a domed area flanked by three loggias with sofas and cupboards for books. The decoration is mostly classical.

On the eastern side there is a wonderful fountain that at some point has been restored and now is resplendent with its gold(leaf).
