Tarık Zafer Tunaya Cultural Center, whose restoration was completed within the scope of Beyoğlu Culture Road project in Istanbul, was opened with a ceremony. Minister of Culture and Tourism Mehmet Nuri Ersoy, Deputy Minister Ahmet Misbah Demircan, Beyoğlu Mayor Haydar Ali Yıldız and many guests from the art community attended the opening ceremony. Explaining that restoration works will start in the Galata Tower in a short time, Minister Ersoy said:
CONTENT WILL CHANGE
* When you go to the Galata Tower, it is one of the points that dominate all the attractions of Istanbul. As of this week, we have completed the project in Galata Tower. We are completing the restoration tender by the end of June. We will be put into service very quickly on September 15.
* The contents of the Galata Tower are also changing. There are cafeterias, restaurants, kitchens and offices in it. We take out all the activity areas that are incompatible with the essence of the Galata Tower.
WE STARTED THE LEGAL PROCESS
* We will turn all the attraction points you observe from the tower into a museum where you will see all the details inside and use technology predominantly. Galata Tower will attract tourists from Galataport with its charm.
* You can look at the Galata tower from the air and it has a natural apartment. There is a building in the middle of it. We started the legal process about it. We will make the necessary expropriations in the square and return the square to its former feature. It will become a cultural square. (IHA)
