Yıldız Park
Yıldız Park is one of Istanbul's largest historical parks, set between the Yıldız and Çırağan palaces. It's a sprawling green escape from the city, with old pavilions and wooded paths.
Bağdat Avenue
Bağdat Avenue is the main high street on Istanbul's Anatolian side, running 14 km along the Marmara coast. It's a modern, bustling shopping and dining strip, often compared to Istiklal Avenue across the Bosphorus.
Bebek
A leafy Bosphorus bay village of waterfront cafés and strolls on the European shore. Perfect for a lazy afternoon coffee with a sea view.
Dilburnu Nature Park
The pine-shaded southern tip of Büyükada, offering picnic spots, sweeping Marmara views, and a quiet reward after a long walk or bike ride from the ferry.
Garipçe
A drowsy fishing village at the mouth of the Bosphorus where the water turns to the Black Sea, with ruined castle walls and unpretentious fish restaurants right at the shoreline.
