EDITORS COMMENTS
The Wishing Pool at Topkapi Palace in Istanbul, Turkey is a sight to behold, even in this vintage print from circa 1975. The tranquil waters of the pool reflect the grandeur and beauty of the palace's architecture, creating a serene and magical atmosphere.
Visitors to Topkapi Palace have long believed that if they make a wish while tossing a coin into the pool, their wish will come true. This age-old tradition adds an element of mystique to the already enchanting setting.
In this image captured by The Peter Butt Aviation Collection, we can see visitors gathered around the pool, some with hands clasped in prayer or contemplation as they make their wishes. The lush greenery surrounding the pool only adds to its allure, making it a truly picturesque spot within the palace grounds.
As we gaze upon this snapshot from decades past, we are transported back in time to experience a moment of peace and reflection amidst one of Istanbul's most iconic landmarks. The Wishing Pool at Topkapi Palace continues to be a place where dreams are made and hopes are shared, reminding us of the power of belief and positivity in our lives.
