It's a glass railing at an art museum reflecting wall art in the stairwell. I got more of that wall art here.

Evidently, they bought different kinds with different color temperatures over time. This hotel (Istanbul Hilton, now it prolly has a qualifier since there's more than one) has been there since the '50s and perhaps less popular rooms still have incandescent bulbs?

Addendum: yes, indeed, it's called "Hilton Istanbul Bosphorus" now. It has a Wikipedia page, even, with this fun Cold War tidbit about how/why it was built:

John Wilson Houser, vice-president of Hilton International, wrote a letter to Conrad N. Hilton on June 23, 1951 about the Soviet Union's intention to build a 1,000-room hotel in Istanbul similar to the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York City, plans of which he had seen. Hilton Istanbul Bosphorus project thus became a factor in the Cold War US–Soviet rivalry.

This is a short, curving tram tunnel with glass railings for pedestrian traffic. On the sides there are (painted, I think) scenes from old Turkish movies surrounded by a lighting scheme designed to look like 35mm film perforations. It works OK when seen from a tram window but the whole scene is a bit weird when walking in the tunnel. It's even weirder with the angle and the focal length I used, but this is essentially the mood of the place.

Eminönü, Istanbul.
