Kız Kulesi Hikayesi : İstanbul'un Silüeti Kız Kulesi

Return to Homepage

2500 yıllık tarihiyle iki kıtanın yakasını bağlayan, boğazın tam ortasında duran, İstanbul’a göz kulak olan Kız Kulesi. Birçok medeniyete ev sahibi, tarihe tanık, aşklara yuva, şiirlere konu olmuş Kız Kulesi.

Salacak açıklarında küçük bir adanın üzerinde arz-ı endam ederken Galata Kulesi’ne doğru, İstanbul denince akla gelen ilk yerlerden birisi olur kendisi. İlk kez M.Ö 410 yılında adından bahsettiren Kız Kulesi, Atinalı komutan Alkibiades tarafından, boğazdan geçen gemileri kontrol etmek için inşa ettirilir ilk başta. Ama zaman, insan, mekân yerinde durmaz, Kız Kulesi de durmadı evvela. İstanbul Roma hakimiyetine geçince İmparator Mauel Comnenos Kız Kulesi’ni taşlarla güçlendirip savunma binası haline getirdi. Gel zaman git zaman Fatih Sultan Mehmet İstanbul’un kapısını araladı, Kız Kulesi’ne aşık oldu. Mehter takımının gösterileri, padişah geçit törenlerine ev sahipliği yaptı. Yalnız bu kentin bir laneti vardı o da 1510 yılında meydana gelen depremdi ama yıkılmadı Kız Kulesi hatta üzerine bir fener konuldu, deniz feneri olarak ışık saçtı etrafa. Cumhuriyet’in ışığı da dolunca İstanbul’a daha neler geçmiştir başından Kız Kulesi. Geçen bunca zamanda Galata’ya sevdalı, kralların kızına yuva, aşıklara mezar, düşmana korku oldun. Sahi dilin olsa neler söylerdin Kız Kulesi?

 
 

11.04.2023’de yeni halin ile karşınca hayata, açınca kapını İstanbul’a, dünyaya anlatacak birçok anın, yazılacak onca hikayen olacaktır illa. Hem ne demişti şair,

“eskimo bir şair dokunuyor omzuma
ve Kızkulesi’ni göstererek
bırak artık diyor üzülmeyi
yedi tepeli bu şehirde
şiir okunacak tek yer
elbette denizin ortasındaki
şu küçük buz dağı”

İstanbul, tarihinden ve alıcı güzelliğinden ödün vermeyen, Galata Kulesi asırlardır süren aşkına, insanlar ise tarihin yaşayan anıtı olan Kız Kulesi’ne yirmi ay sonra yeniden kavuştu. Mayıs ayı sonuna kadar her akşam, üzerine vuran ışık şovu ile geri döndüğünü söylemeye devam edecek Kız Kulesi. Bu ışıklar, gözlerinizi yeniden iki kıtayı birleştiren yere doğru çevirirken, elbette Kız Kulesi ve Galata’nın aşk hikayesini anlatacak tüm İstanbul’a.

 
 

Yıllar boyunca İstanbul’un tüm gözlerini üzerinde toplayan Kız Kulesi, restore edilmiş hali ile gelen ziyaretçilere kollarını haftanın her günü 09.00 ile 20.00 arasında açarken İstanbul’u seyretmelerini de sağlayacak ve bir anıt müze olarak ışıldamaya devam edecek. Bu eşsiz kavuşmaya ve manzaraya ise mayıs ayı sonuna kadar ulaşmak ve gezmek ücretsiz. Haziran ayından sonra ise Müze kart ile irlikte Kız Kulesi ile kavuşabilirsiniz. İstanbul’un gözcüsü, boğazın incisi olan Kız Kulesi’ne gitmek için ise, Üsküdar, Salacak ve Galataport’tan kalkan tekneler ile ulaşım sağlayabilirsiniz.
