About

Keeping traditional Turkish handicrafts alive and sharing our culture with the world

Our Story

TurkaHome Workshop was founded in 2018 in the historic Süleymaniye district of Istanbul with a passion for sharing traditional Turkish handicrafts and culture with the world.

In a Turkish home from the Ottoman period over 200 years old, in an authentic atmosphere, we offer our visitors not just a workshop experience, but also an opportunity to experience Turkish hospitality and culture.
