Üsküdar is a district located on the Asian shore of the Bosphorus in Istanbul, opposite the Besiktas district. Uskyudar is known for its beautiful coastline, Maiden Tower, Beylerbey Palace, Chamlydzha Hill and mosque, Fethi Pasha grove, historical sites such as mosques of the 16th century, fountains, etc.
Uskyudar is known as one of the most ancient Istanbul districts. Once there was a military outpost in this place. And the territory of Uskyudar is the sacred land closest to Mecca. Thousands of pilgrims once gathered here to go on a religious journey.
Until today, the district has practically not changed its appearance, retaining conservatism. The main attractions of Uskyudar are the Muslim temples of the Idevichy Tower. In the central part of the district there is a pier for ferries, and not far from it there is a spacious square and a beautiful Salajak embankment.
Today, Uskyudar can be called a real "city within a city". The combination of bright houses, snow-white minarets, massive rocks and emerald-green plants creates a unique flavor, which is complemented by interesting details, such as the fountain of Sultan Ahmed the Third, erected in 1728 and reflecting the original Ottoman style.
