Tuzla

Tuzla is the south-easternmost district on the Asian side of Istanbul, bordering Kocaeli province. It is home to one of Turkey's main shipbuilding zones, as well as organised industrial parks and logistics hubs, so business travel dominates. Area guide ›

Kadıköy

Kadıköy is the cultural and social heart of the Asian side. Built over ancient Chalcedon, it now buzzes with a young, creative energy: a historic market, independent bookshops, record stores, meyhanes and lively bar streets. Fishmongers, pickle shops and delis fill the market lanes, while Bahariye Caddesi forms a pedestrian spine that leads to the Süreyya Opera House. Area guide ›
