Kartal
Kartal lies in the south-east of the Asian side, between Maltepe and Pendik, and has been changing rapidly through urban regeneration. Residential towers and new mixed-use projects built on former industrial land have given it a modern skyline, while promenades and parks along the shore are local favourites. Kartal is home to major public hospitals, so many visitors are patients and their families; business travellers who want to be close to Sabiha Gökçen also choose the area. Area guide ›
