BEYOGLU, ISTANBUL

  THE EUROPEAN "NEW TOWN" ACROSS THE GOLDEN HORN


Travel to any town in Turkey and you are sure to find a tea garden.

In the larger cities and touristic regions, tea houses welcome the young and old, as well as many foreigners.

Tea gardens gained popularity in the 1950s, especially in Istanbul, and were the place where families went for their social outings.

This garden in Beyoglu overlooks the Bosphorus.
