Central , Big, New Renevated Flat in Cihangir Taksim

The stomping ground for artists, writers and intellectuals since the 1970s, Cihangir, a neighbourhood in Beyoğlu, is easily likened to districts such as Le Marais in Paris or Williamsburg in New York. The bohemian lifestyle hangs thick in the air amid the neighbourhood’s narrow streets shrouded in greenery, great street cafés, and wonderful clothes and food boutiques. The area is one of the prettiest in the city – a stark contrast to the madness of Taksim and Istiklal Caddesi – and to keep the neighbourhood looking attractive, the clever use of small concrete slabs lining the streets has been employed to prevent cars driving whenever they please. After all, this is Istanbul.
