Buy a digital subscription Go to the Digital EditionIn our guide, we have divided Turkey’s most populous city into five areas: the historic peninsula of the Old City, including the Golden Horn, Beyoğlu and the traditionally European quarter, the Bosphorus, the Princes Islands, and the new cities that cluster on both sides of the Bosphorous. As you explore, all manner of tips will be whispered in your virtual ear, from the best views and who to read when resting in the garden of the Topkapı. Enjoy Istanbul!
O/M Lying on both sides of the Bosphorus, the narrow strait between the Black Sea and the Marmara Sea, Istanbul bridges Asia and Europe.
Cornucopia celebrated its 50th issue with the first in a three-part portrait of Istanbul. The focus was the monuments of the Old City and the Golden Horn, both Ottoman and Byzantine.
The tide has turned on this famous inlet, once the hub of the city's commercial life. Now it is a pleasant backwater of gently crumbling hillside districts, with old palaces, city walls and shrines, celebrated in Cornucopia 50.
Art, entertainment, business and fashion are all based north of the Golden Horn, from bohemia in busy Beyoğlu and cool Cihangir to upmarket shopping in Nişantaşı, and earthy, soccer-crazy Beşiktaş.
The waters defining Europe and Asia can be as dreamy as they are meaningful. There are three good museums and countless places to let the world slip by. Let Cornucopia 52 be your guide to both City and Village Bosphorus.
Devouring scattered villages and leafy suburbs, Istanbul spreads for tens of miles along the Sea of Mamara and up both sides of the Bosphorus. Mini- Manhattans now rise from hilltops and march across coastal plains.
A curious archipelago adrift off the Asian shore, miraculously preserved so far, but oh so fragile. The Islands, as they are called, make a memorable out-of-season day out from the city.
