A glass-and-steel box by Renzo Piano sits low on the Bosphorus edge. Inside, Turkish modern and contemporary art runs through the decades, and the café windows frame the Old City skyline across the water. It sits right on the Galataport promenade, so a gallery loop and a seafront stroll fit together easily. Closed on Mondays.
