Cengelkoy and Cinaralti

About Cengelkoy and Cinaralti

Cengelkoy and Cinaralti are neighboring districts on Asian side of Istanbul, located along the Bosphorus in Uskudar area.

Cengelkoy is known for its narrow streets, waterside wooden houses, and locally grown cucumbers once famous throughout the city.

Nearby Cinaralti is home to a historic tea garden shaded by an old plane tree, offering views of the water and passing ferries.

Both places reflect a slower pace of life and a strong connection to Istanbul’s traditional Bosphorus culture.
