Image by Boris Stroujko/Shutterstock Bottom: Decorative tiles inside Topkapi Palace. Image by saiko3p/Shutterstock About stanbul is a city of nearly unparalleled historical and cultural signicance. Spread across both banks of the Bosphorus River with one foot in Europe and the other in Asia, the city has long played a strategic role in, quite literally, bridging the cultures and traditions of East and West, while its unique geography has thrust it into the centre of world history Itime and again. Capital of the Byzantine Empire, Constantinople, as it was rst known, £ourished as the western terminus of the Great Silk Road. Evidence of this legacy is still visible today in the bustling bazaars that brim with exotic spices, and the crumbling walls that once enclosed the world’s most heavily fortied city. Later, under the Ottoman Empire, the city was renamed and rose again in prominence, this time as the epicentre of Islamic culture with its rich artistic and architectural forms. e Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palace and traditional hammams, all teeming with lavish textiles, mosaics and calligraphic art, recall this rich heritage. To visit Istanbul today is to walk thrugh history, both ancient and contemporary. Mediaeval city planning, arcaded avenues and cobblestone streets give visual record to its inheritance while housing an array of modern galleries, boutiques and cafes. Sumptuous sweet shops will tempt you with their cases brimming with colourful Turkish delight, marbled halva and geometric baklava; at night, historic passages clamour with patrons commanding trays of meze and bottles of raki while buskers on accordions and clarinets ll the air with their melancholic melodies. We highly recommend a read of Orhan Pamuk’s Istanbul, considered the uno¦cial memoir of the city, to fully prepare your senses for the delight that awaits you here, at the crossroads of history and world traditions. Enjoy! When to Go Istanbul’s climate is not easily categorised due to the city’s size, location, diverse topography and many coastlines. ere are several microclimates that fall somewhere between Mediterranean, humid subtropical and oceanic.

  • Architectural and Historic Preservation of Old Houses Baltazzi's Old
    ARCHITECTURAL AND HISTORIC PRESERVATION OF OLD HOUSES BALTAZZI’S OLD PROPERTIES IN ISTANBUL Houses- Appartments - Mansions-Yalis - Hans and Farms Introduction I am happy to have concluded this research which I had in mind for a long time. I was of course encouraged by the positive trend of continuing group research on the history of Levantines. This work is also aimed as a message to encourage the preservation of the architectural and historical heritage of the city of Istanbul and I am grateful for the help from friends and the efficient assistance of my offices in both cities. The Baltazzi famiy, although since the XVIIIth century were living in Izmir have also maintained close relations from that time with the capital Istanbul due to their business activites in finance and banking as well as due their close relations with the Ottoman Court. Some other Levantive and Greek families such as the Whittals, the La Fontaines, the Mavrogordato, the Sevastopoulos to cite a few also acquired a range of proprieties and hade members of these numerous families resident in both cities and various neighbourhoods. 1- HOUSES The emminent authority on Ottoman Banking History Pr. Haydar Kazgan and many other authors mention that the first permission to a foreigner to own a house was given in recognition of the services rendered to the Sultan to my great great grand father the Banker Emanuele Baltazzi around 1850 whereas the official permission for foreigners to own real-estate was granted only in 1867. Where was this house situated? Akylas Millas in his “Pera Crossroads of Constantinople” gives as location the Bonmarche at Istanbul Grand Rue de Pera (today Istiklal Caddesi of Beyoğlu) saying “The Bartoli brothers famous for Au Bon Marche department store occupied the ground floor of a neo-classical building erected in 1870 on the site of the residence of Manolaki Valtadji efendi which burnt in the frequent fires which occurred in Pera”.

  • Morphologic Assessment of Istanbul Beyoğlu Peninsula in the Process of Reproducing the Urban Waterfront
    Birik, Melih Morphologic Assessment of Beyoğlu Peninsula 50th ISOCARP Congress 2014 Morphologic Assessment of Istanbul Beyoğlu Peninsula In the Process of Reproducing the Urban Waterfront. Peer-reviewed paper Melih Birik, Kırklareli University, Turkey Abstract “Water”, the main signifier of Istanbul had different meanings for the city specifically starting from Haliç (also known as the Golden Horn) to the Bosphorus. During the long period of urbanization, Haliç became the backbone of integrated historical sites that encounters different morphologic characteristics. Despite deep cultural, social and geographical roots integrating its identity with the water, today Istanbul’s city centre is under the risk of turning its back on the waterfront because of currently planned spatial interventions. Lack of connections and flows are separating this vibrant city centre from the coastline. In this assessment, the spatial qualifications of the waterfront of Beyoğlu Peninsula examined according to morphologic values in order to re-associate it with its hinterland. During the 1950s and 60s, a modernizing ideology of new production methods guiding the spatial planning policies had transformed the waterfront of Istanbul, creating barriers between the city centre and the water. Especially, along the Beyoğlu Peninsula following the coastline from Besiktas to the Halic shipyard the barriers have a massive effect. While the new urban planning ideology of the 80s was predicting the decentralization program for waterfront, the city centre has had a new chance to create the potential for the use of spatial voids within the solid structure of the old urban fabric. Unfortunately, during the last decade, these potential public areas, consisting of warehouses, shipyards, industrial plants and customhouses of mostly industrial heritage buildings were enclosed in privatization programs under the guidance of a real estate market based on certain urban transformation policies.
