Yali of Abut Efendi

The Abud Efendi yali was bought by Abud Efendi in the beginning of 1900's. Garabet, who was the architect of this yali was from the Armenian Balyan family. They built many of the palaces and important buildings in Istanbul. Abud Efendi's daughter Belkis, who had been a prominent figure on the Istanbul social scene in 1920's, had a fabulous wedding ceremony in this mansion.
