Yellow Kiosk, Ottoman pavilion in Üsküdar, Turkey.
The Yellow Kiosk stands as a two-story pavilion featuring traditional Ottoman architectural elements with glazed bricks and stone-framed decorative details throughout its structure.
Built in 1472 during the reign of Sultan Mehmed II, this pavilion served as a retreat for Ottoman rulers seeking respite from their administrative duties.
The building incorporates Central Asian architectural influences, particularly visible in its Greek cross-shaped ground plan and the blue-and-white tile arrangements.
Visitors can reach the Yellow Kiosk through public transportation to Üsküdar district, with regular opening hours from morning until early evening.
The pavilion contains three royal chambers that open directly toward the Bosphorus, providing views across the water from its elevated position.
