Visit Haydarpaşa Train Station, a grand Ottoman-era terminus on Istanbul's Asian shore. Admire its sandstone facade, clock tower and seaside setting during a short waterfront stop.
Full description
Haydarpaşa Train Station stands on the Asian shore of the Bosphorus, a stately building with a sandstone facade, a clock tower and an ornate vaulted ceiling. It sits right by the sea, and reviewers praise its architecture, waterfront views and nostalgic atmosphere.
The site began as an early railway terminus linked to the İzmit line, with port works carried out in the early 1900s. Visitors should note that parts of the building may be closed for construction, excavation and renovation, so many people appreciate it mainly from the outside and along the waterfront.
