🗨️ “If you are travelling from Karaköy to Galata without using the subway, I recommend that you use these stairs. It is historical and very aesthetic. The first time we took a different route, and we were quite tired, so usually everyone uses the tunnel or metro. But these stairs are both easier and more enjoyable.”
🗨️ “The staircase was built by the Camondo family for their children going to school. Thanks to this curved structure, if someone falls down the stairs, they stop at the bends and do not go all the way down. Be like Camondo in being utilitarian 👌🏻”
🗨️ “As you descend from Galata to Kabatas, you can take a short but fascinating time travel through these elegant stairs. The lively atmosphere with street performers and tourists creates the atmosphere of an open-air square. Although it is one of the cult photo spots, it is still not well-known. Every time I visit Galata, I always stand in front of it and watch it for a while.”
🗨️ “If you take Bankalar Street on your way to Galata, you can see these stairs. It is named after the Camondo family, bankers who lived in the 1850s. It has a perfect perspective for photography.”
🗨️ “One of the most interesting buildings in Istanbul. I read that it was built by a non-Muslim banker so that his grandchildren could go up and down easily.”
🗨️ “These stairs leading up to the Galata Tower, which remind me of a fountain of love in Istanbul, are very romantic.”
🗨️ “This historical structure, which you can come across while descending from Galata Tower to Karaköy beach, is a must-see. I suggest you read its story first. Its different architecture attracts everyone's attention.”
