" Full of life.. noisy.. nice and ugly at the same time..

If you like to eat fish.. take the restaurant s under the bridge.. they are clean, the view is better and the prices are same as those selling from the boats..

The hygienicall conditions at those boat restaurants are catastrophic.. "

" This is the heart of the walled city of Constantine, the focus of a history of incredible richness. Eminönü covers the point on which the Byzantine capital was built. The Galata Bridge crosses the Golden Horn into Eminönü and the mouth of the Bosphorus opens into the Marmara Sea. And up on the hill stands Topkapı Palace, the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. Thus Eminönü is the main tourist destination in Istanbul. It was a part of Fatih district until 1928 which constitutes the old Istanbul peninsula, which was formerly the Constantinople. The district's name, Eminönü, also reflects its' place in history. By the 1950s, the area was continuously clogged up with traffic, which was eased somewhat by the construction of the large coast road around the point and all the way out to Istanbul airport. Translated from Turkish to English it roughly means 'in front of justice'. Emin meaning 'justice', önü meaning 'in front of'. The name most probably came from the Ottoman courts and customs houses on the docks. It’s really the heart of Istanbul, you’ll be amazed when you see the shops there, they are all friendly and welcomes you with a warm smile. I am positively sure on my next visit to Turkey I’ll go there spend a lot of fun time "
