Üsküdar

Üsküdar is one of the oldest settlements on the Asian side and one of the districts that best preserves its Ottoman character through its historic mosques. Works by Mimar Sinan, the view of the Maiden's Tower and waterside tea gardens are its trademarks. More traditional and local in feel, Üsküdar also takes in graceful Bosphorus villages such as Kuzguncuk, Beylerbeyi and Çengelköy. Area guide ›
