Περίπτερο Küçüksu

Βυζαντινοί συγγραφείς παρατήρησαν την ομορφιά της ασιατικής ακτής του Στενού της Κωνσταντινούπολης, το οποίο κατά την οθωμανική εποχή έγινε ένα από τα αυτοκρατορικά πάρκα γνωστά ως Kandil Bahcesi (Lantern Garden). Ένα αγαπημένο του Σουλτάνου Murad IV (1623-1640), το Kucuksu μετονομάστηκε από αυτόν σε Gümüs Selvi (Silver Cypress) και το όνομα Bagce-i Göksu βρίσκεται σε πολλαπλές πηγές που ξεκινούν από τον 7ο αιώνα.

Εδώ, στην παραλία, ο Δίβιταρ Μεχμέτ Πασάς έχτισε ένα ξύλινο παλάτι δύο ορόφων κατά τη διάρκεια της βασιλείας του Μαχμούντ Α ́ (1730–754).

The current stone pavilion or royal lodge was built in the same style as Dolmabahce and Ihlamur during the reign of Mahmud's son Abdülmecid (1839–1861) when western influence on Turkish architecture was at its height.

The architecture of the Kucuksu Pavilion

Nikogos Balyan was commissioned to design and build the Kucuksu Pavilion in 1857. The pavilion was built on a plot of land measuring 15 by 27 meters. It has a basement and two stories above ground; the basement houses a pantry, kitchen, and living quarters for servants. The layout of the first and second floors is similar to that of a traditional Turkish home, with four corner rooms that open onto a central gallery. The sultan would stay at the pavilion briefly whenever he went on a hunting trip or a country excursion. Kucuksu, unlike other imperial buildings, was not protected by high walls but rather by castiron railings and gates on all four sides. It was during the reign of Abdülmecid's younger brother Abdülaziz (1861–1876) that the building's facade was embellished further. The pavilion's ancillary structures have long since been demolished.

Διάφορα δυτικά κίνητρα διακοσμούν την περίτεχνη πρόσοψη της θάλασσας και τη διπλή πτήση των βημάτων που κυμαίνονται πλούσια γύρω από την διακοσμητική πισίνα και τη βρύση. τα έπιπλα και οι διακοσμήσεις στο εσωτερικό αντανακλούν το ευρωπαϊκό στυλ που καθιέρωσε στο εξωτερικό ο Sechan, ο σχεδιαστής σκηνής της Βιέννης.

Carton-pierre molding and painted designs adorn the ceilings. Kucuksu is like a museum of 19th-century fireplace design due to the large number of fireplaces made of Italian marble of varying colors and styles. Each room's elegant parquet floor features a unique pattern, and the furniture, carpets, and paintings are all in the European style. For a time following the founding of the Turkish Republic, Kucuksu Pavilion served as a state guest house; nowadays, it serves as a museum palace.

After undergoing extensive restoration in 1994, the pavilion is now the centerpiece of a park that will include a garden, parkland, a fountain, and a quay where visitors can go on picnics and boat rides just as they did centuries ago. Upon request, private events can be held in the Kucuksu Pavilion garden once construction is finished.
