Rahmi M. Koc Museum





On New Year's weekend, we took a trip to Istanbul to go to the Rahmi M. Koc Museum. Intending to see the Leonardo Da Vinci exhibit displaying his machinery, flight experiments, and drawings, we ended up enjoying the rest of the museum more! Rahmi M. Koc collected vintage cars, carriages, engines, ships, computers, and other technological devices. His museum is split into two buildings, with a waterside location on the Golden Horn. We climbed aboard a small display airplane for Topi's first mock plane ride, and I posed in a vintage Turkish streetcar.
