Where the relics are, the lighting is so much better, making it easier to take photos. From I remember from 25 years ago, when I first visited Top Kapi, picture taking of the relics used to be prohibited, but nowadays surprisingly it is not and I took full advantage.

Finally, there is the Treasury, which has some of the most lavishly decorated examples of Islamic arms and armor in the world.

The treasury ends with a magnificent broadsword, most probably Mameluke even if attributed to Caliph Uthman. It is certainly a suitable ending to the tour.
