FENER BALAT CULTURE TOUR*

*Expert professional guide in Turkish language with kokartlı, guide with headset device.

Are you ready to spend a beautiful Saturday in the side streets of Istanbul’s most cosmopolitan neighborhood?

One of the most important settlements of both the Byzantine and Ottoman periods was the neighborhood of Fener. Because of its steep slopes, the residents of this neighborhood called it Petrion during the Byzantine period. The cute Greek architecture houses that shout “we are a part of this city”, the historical Greek Patriarchate of Fener, which is the spiritual leader of approximately 250 million Orthodox people in the world, are among the works of the neighborhood.

Since time immemorial, the district of Fener was one of the educational centers of the Greek community.

The neighborhood of Balat, which bears the sadness of the Seferads and creates the atmosphere of Jerusalem in the middle of Istanbul with its cosmopolitan structure, named after the word Palation, meaning “palace”, is also presented to you in this tour as the Nefs-i Istanbul corner where we will share its secrets with you.
