Sisli

As a renowned center for local and international businesses in Istanbul, Şişli became the home to international companies and trendy shopping centers. This rich area is located on the European side of the city and is surrounded by Sarıyer, Besiktas, Beyoğlu, Kağıthane, and Eyüpsultan. These mentioned areas are areas with skyscrapers and luxury villas adjacent to the best coastal locations in the city, which include the famous İstiklal Caddesi and its square, Taksim Square. We also do not forget the Islamic and Ottoman historical aspects of these areas, as Ottoman history is evident in all its corners.

After it was one of the areas known for agriculture and fishing near the city's countryside, Şişli developed into an urban center with a clear French influence on this development. The area was distinguished by its wide streets, large stone buildings, and iron balconies. Therefore, it is logical that it would be one of the first tourist areas in the Republic that were provided with electricity and gas and the construction of metros and tramways.

Şişli constitutes a unique intersection point within Istanbul that shows the ancient history and the rare architectural and urban civilization. It also is considered an international center, a financial market, and a center for tourism and shopping. All these characteristics blend with the area's history and heritage to become a major hub for the city's transportation and a central meeting point witnessing permanent activity. For this, visitors can reach the area through all known means of transportation, such as metrobus lines, metro, buses, and cars while easily exiting the area to anywhere in the city.
