Lonely Planet review for Istanbul Museum of the History of Science & Technology in Islam

Recent beautification works at Gülhane Park have seen improvements to walkways and amenities, and have included the opening of a new museum, the İstanbul Museum of the History of Science & Technology in Islam, which is housed in the former palace stables. Its didactic exhibition argues that Islamic advances in science and technology preceded and greatly influenced those in Europe. Most of the exhibits are reconstructions of historical instruments and tools. Rumour has it that the nearby barracks building is being considered as the new home of the Military Museum.
