Google and Real Turkey

Özel Arama
I am a citizen of Istanbul and you can find my recommendations regarding what you should do during your stay at Istanbul.

You know, most of the tourists just visit the most popular places and return to their countries without experiencing the real city life.

The objective of my blog is to help you to see the real city life in Istanbul.

Metro of Istanbul

Metro:

The 7.6 km-long line runs through the districts of Taksim, Osmanbey, Şişli, Gayrettepe, Levent, 4. Levent. It is a short metro but very useful for most of the citizens because if you do not travel by metro, it will take your one hour to pass the 7,6 km.



There are 6 stations at these points. The journey time between the two main stations (Taksim-4. Levent) is 12 minutes, with trains departing every 5 minutes. Passenger capacity is 70,000 persons/hour-one way.
