Taksim, Beyoglu, Pera, Istiklal, Galata, Cukurcuma? Confused?

Don’t be! It’s easy to say all the other above districts are micro-districts in Taksim-Beyoglu area. Some of these names are often used as substitutes for each other, sometimes inaccurately. The main thing is that Taksim-Beyoglu area is at the heart of Istanbul. Many contemporary museums, art galleries, cinemas, theatres, bars, clubs, cafes and restaurants are in this district, along with our apartments.
