ISTANBUL GUIDE - Ortaköy

 Istanbul > About Istanbul > Districts > Ortaköy
 
Ortaköy

Ortaköy is probably a district envied by other districts in the Boshporus. It is located in such a beautiful spot... With its cafes stretching along the coasts, the bars in just one street from the back, street bazaars, the famous Ortaköy Mosque on its side, sellers of kumpir, gözleme and mussels side by side, Ortaköy is a popular place not only with Turkish and foreign tourists but also with its own residents... (Kumpir is a word used in İstanbul for “baked potatoes”. Gözleme is a type of fast-food made by placing minced meat, cheese, potato between thin home made bread and cooking it on sheet metal oven).

The history of Ortaköy is as old as sultans’ using here as their summer residence... If you ass by the area, come to Ortaköy, one of the places where you can best view the Boshporus, and enjoy it with your tea cup on your hand...
