Who is Ömer Hayyam?
Born in Nishapur in 1048, Ömer Hayyam (Omar Khayyam) derived his surname, meaning "tent maker" in Persian, from his father's profession. He gained fame as a distinguished scholar, but his interests spanned music and poetry as well. During the Seljuk period, he traveled to significant centers of learning, such as Merv, Bukhara, Balkh, and Baghdad. His work was highly valued by prominent figures, including the Karakhanids, Shams al-Mulk, and Seljuk Sultan Melikşah, who often sought his counsel in their courts.
Ömer Hayyam's contributions to various fields—fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence), literature, theology, physics, astronomy, and history—have earned him a lasting legacy.
Ömer Hayyam’s Poetry
As a renowned scientist, philosopher, astronomer, and mathematician, Hayyam imparted profound wisdom through his works, many of which are composed in quatrains. His poetry often reflects themes of love, longing, and the human experience. For example, he poignantly states, “Separation and longing are pleasurable; understanding you and waiting for you holds great importance.”
Hayyam also addressed the relationship between wealth and value, expressing that while the mind may not regard money as valuable, it cannot navigate the world without it. He wrote, “An empty hand bows its neck; rose gold does not ignore the bowl,” emphasizing the need to balance material worth with personal integrity. One of his notable declarations is that “Justice is the soul of the universe,” underscoring his belief in the fundamental importance of justice in human existence.
Getting Around
Tram: Take the tram from Taksim Square to Tünel or vice versa. The tram runs along Istiklal Street, connecting Taksim to Beyoğlu, Galatasaray, and Tünel.
Metro: For shopping, take the metro from Taksim Square to the "Levent" stop. From there, visit either Metrocity (escalators on the left after exiting) or the open-air Kanyon (escalators on the right after exiting) – both are major shopping malls in Istanbul.

To ensure every guest arrives to a professionally cleaned and perfectly prepared home, we maintain a strict schedule:
