Cengelkoy and Cinaralti
The two districts, Cengelkoy and Cinaralti, located in the Asian side of Istanbul allow a point of view into the daily lives of people. With its picturesque coastline and old houses, Cengelkoy stands for a peaceful spot in the middle of the rush and chaos of the city center.
Çınaraltı, which literally means "plane tree at the beach," with its gigantic plane tree, is a walking spot where one can indulge in traditional Turkish tea and snacks.
These places are excellent for an enjoyable day outdoors with relaxed atmosphere and beautiful views of the Bosphorus.
