Huber Yalı, Tarabya, İstanbul: white mansion with red tile roofs and Turkish flags on the Bosphorus, seen from the water

This yalı set in an extensive garden was constructed by the Huber Brothers, weapons brokers who represented the German Mauser and Krupp companies in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Acquired by the Turkish state in 1985, it now functions as the presidential residence in İstanbul.
