Stroll Moda, Kadıköy's relaxed seaside quarter. Wander tree-lined streets to the clifftop park, then watch the sun drop over the Marmara with a glass of tea in hand.
Full description
Moda is a residential neighbourhood on the Sea of Marmara coast of Kadıköy, favoured by students, artists, and young families. Tree-lined streets lead to a cliffside park with tea gardens and open views toward the old city and the Princes' Islands.
The main street, Moda Caddesi, offers independent cafés, ice cream parlours, bookshops, and bars, giving the area a gentle, unpretentious pace. Late-afternoon walks along the seafront promenade and sunset tea by the water are the area's defining routines, and it feels noticeably calmer than the busier European districts.
