Pera Palace Istanbul
At the stroke of midnight, a single opulent ballroom hosted a historic celebration during which a nation's calendar instantly advanced by nearly 600 years.
Built to welcome passengers from history's most famous luxury train line, this legendary Istanbul landmark became a crossroads of political intrigue and a haven for iconic artists, spies, and world leaders.
Today, the Pera Palace Hotel operates as a living museum-hotel, hiding real-life secrets that have inspired both bestselling books and a hit time-traveling drama series.
