🏙️ Asansör – A Historic Elevator with Stunning Views

Asansör, meaning “Elevator” in Turkish, is a historic landmark in İzmir’s Karataş neighborhood. Built in 1907 to help residents easily reach the higher parts of the city, it has become both a functional attraction and a scenic viewpoint. The tower houses a small elevator and a café at the top, offering panoramic views of İzmir, the coastline, and the bustling city below.

I loved visiting in the late afternoon when the golden sunlight illuminated the city and the Aegean Sea sparkled in the distance. Climbing the elevator is quick, but taking time to enjoy the terrace café and capture photos makes the experience even more memorable. The surrounding streets are charming, with historic buildings, art galleries, and local eateries to explore.

Whether you’re a photography enthusiast, a history lover, or just seeking a beautiful city panorama, Asansör is a must-visit in İzmir.
