Istanbul Travel Guide
One Day on the Asian Side of Istanbul
A practical itinerary from Kadıköy to the Çamlıca hills.
Morning
Ferry to Kadıköy and walk the market streets — fish, cheese, pickles, coffee. Continue to Moda for a seafront stretch before it gets hot.
Afternoon and evening
Take the M4 north or a ferry to Üsküdar for the waterfront mosques, then head up to Çamlıca Tower for sunset. Finish with dinner back down in Kadıköy, which stays busy late.
