Time travel, mystery, suspense, romance all in one

Hi Lemonades, I want to share with you a Netflix series that I discovered recently: Midnight at the Pera Palace!

❤️ It is a Turkish historical drama with time travel, mystery, suspense, and romance all in one!

🧡 Here is the summary of the story:

The British colonial army plots to assassinate Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the Turkey's father, before he boards for the war of independence.

Kemal should be rescued by his lover. However, a reporter who travels back a century accidentally changes the history.

Now, she has to prevent Kemal from being killed! She also unravels her own family mystery during the adventure.

✨ So, what I love about the series? ✨

💛 Classic style, stunning costumes, extravagant banquets, charming characters that will make you fall in love with Turkey.

💚Fast-paced plot, surprises at every turn. Thrilling and satisfying with just 8 episodes.

💙 Set in the iconic "Pera Palace Hotel," the Orient Express's final stop. It hosted Hemingway, Atatürk, and Agatha Christie, the author of "Murder on the Orient Express," who mysteriously disappeared there for 11 days!

🤎 Pera Palace hotel is still stands tall in Istanbul today! It is considered the most luxurious Western-style hotel in the Islamic Empire during the 1900s.

💛 It has witnessed political turmoils, juicy stories of love & betrayal in lavish social events during war times, and the transition of Ottoman empire to the Republic of Turkey.

❤️ Blends history with fiction. The storyline is based on a non-fiction titled "Midnight at the Pera Palace: The Birth of Modern Istanbul" by Charles King. Of course, there is no time travelling romance in the book 🤣

🧡 This Netflix series introduced me to Turkey's beauty and fascinating history. So I’m now diving into the book! Will share my thoughts once I finish reading it! 😀

💡 The only downside? Romance appeared out of the blue at almost the end of the series! 🤣
