Get to know the more residential and calm side of Istanbul in and around Kuzguncuk, Cengelkoy and Kanlica. These are tiny towns lined up one after the other along the Asian Bosphorus.
This is just not where the most beautiful boutique hotels are, this is also where many great local poets fell in love with the city. This is where the artisan life takes hold of you. This is where you eat the best yogurt in the city and the most fresh baked bagel.
On the hills of the these tiny towns are mansions where some very rich people live. So, it's not all tourist districts and downtowns. If you come to Istanbul for a different perspective and some romance, head over to the Asian Bosphorus and its beautiful boutique hotels.
