If you’re the sort of tourist who likes to get off the beaten path and away from the crowds, then you can’t do much better than spend a day getting lost in the fascinating streets of the historically cosmopolitan Fener and Balat neighborhoods. Here the houses are painted in a myriad of colors, washing lines are strung between buildings, kids play in the streets, and traces of Jewish, Armenian, and Orthodox communities still stand.

Wooden late Ottoman houses, quaint 19th century Greek Ortodox Church, various art galleries, antique stores, designer boutiques are spotted among narrow streets with cobbled stones, although this in its essence is an unpretentious part of town.
The main street crowded with fish restaurants, offering different experiences. This is the perfect spot for wandering along among the narrow back streets and taking pictures of old historical houses.
