Galata Kulesi Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

szhein: After long thoughts we decided to archive this cache. We are not sure about the situation at the cache, so we will see for ourselves on our next visit in Istanbul. If everything looks fine we will probably make a new cache... So far thank you for the nice logs and we hope you had fun with our cache!

Geocache Description:

This cache is placed near the Galata Tower...

The Galata Tower was built by the genueses in 1348-49. For further Information and an incredible view we recommend to visit the tower while you are there. It is a little expensive (5€ for using the elevator), but the money is not wasted.

You can see the tower from the cache hideout, but it is not directy at the tower. This is due to the muggles who keep invading the tower permanently. Near the cache there are not that many of them, but you still need to be very careful. Please do not take the chance of finding this cache from your fellow geocachers by beeing too conspicuous.

Just below the hideout, there's a nice cafe where you can sit and enjoy this neighborhood and drink delicious tea.

Please bring your own pen!

Small note on cache maintenance: omaggo has graciously offered to assist. Thanks!
