Found by the Topkapi Palace Museum in 1869, the three Istanbul Archaeological Museums, house over a million antiquities. The trio of buildings includes the Tiled Kiosk Museum, the Ancient Orient Museum, and the Archaeological Museum.

Here you can see such things as ancient include Islamic coins, multiple sarcophagi and even a tomb monument that harkens back to the first century. There is a gift shop and even on-site parking. Children 11 and under are free. Check on the status of any renovations before you go there.
