The Maiden's Tower (Turkish: Kız Kulesi), also known as Leander's Tower (Tower of Leandros) since the medieval Byzantine period, is a tower lying on a small islet located at the southern entrance of the Bosphorus strait 200 m from the coast of Üsküdar in Istanbul, Turkey. Today, there is a restaurant in the first floor and a café at the top of the tower.
Деви́чья башня (Леандрова башня, Кыз Кулеси, тур. Kız Kulesi) — расположена в азиатской части Стамбула на небольшом островке Босфорского пролива в районе Ускюдар. Башня является одним из символов города. Изображена, в частности, на полотне Айвазовского «Вид Леандровой башни в Константинополе» (1848). Сегодня для туристов и прочих посетителей в башне открыты ресторан, кафе, бар, смотровая площадка и сувенирный магазин.
