5 TL entrance fee

3.0/ 5

Entrance fee is 5 TL, you can spare half an hour to visit. However, there is a noticeable lack of care in the exhibitions. It would be nice if at least the numbering signs used for explanation purposes were used correctly and completely. For example, in the exhibition of old coins, they are numbered from 1 to 5, and below are their names and explanations respectively. But those numbers are not attached to the money, how do we know which is which, etc. Additionally, English explanations should be added alongside Turkish explanations.
