March in Istanbul is the time when the city wakes up ☀️
The scent of spring already wafts along the shore, the sun is soft, the air is salty, and life seems to move more slowly.
If you find yourself in Istanbul in March, here's the perfect weekend plan 👇
⛴️ Take a ferry and cross from one bank to the other—Asia ↔️ Europe. A Misto or Kronotrop coffee in hand, the wind in your face, the cries of seagulls all around.
🕊️ Feed the seagulls on the ferry, catch the sun, and watch the Galata Tower shimmer in the rays.
🏙️ Stroll around Beşiktaş, stopping by the flea market and local coffee shops.
🐟 Eat balık ekmek (fish sandwich) at Karayköy, right by the water.
🕌 Visit the Ortaköy Mosque, sit on the steps, and watch the bridge and the people.
☕️ Coffee and dessert at Voi Coffee Company or House Café with a view of the Bosphorus.
🛍️ Stroll the streets of Nişantaşı for a bit of shopping and architecture.
🌅 Sunset by the Galata Bridge, tea in cups, fishermen, and the lights of the night city.
🍽️ Dinner at Moda or Kadikoy – cozy restaurants on the Asian side, fewer tourists, more atmosphere.
