Çiçek Pasajı

Beyoglu's ornate Çiçek Pasaji (Flower Passage) on Istiklal Caddesi at Galatasaray Square is filled with restaurants. Beyoğlu nightlife once revolved around the meyhanes (Turkish tavernas) of Çiçek Pasajı, formerly the Cité de Pera building (1876), a combination shopping arcade and apartment block. Its heavily restored facade faces the school gates.
These days it's the domain of tourists, a beautiful glass-roofed setting for an over-priced middling meal. Adjacent is the Balık Pazarı (Fish Market), still lined with shops fronted by great wooden trays of piscine still-life on ice. On the east side of the market passage at No.24A, hidden behind big black doors, is the Armenian Church of the Three Altars – it is rarely open but worth sticking your head in if you spot the chance.

Feriye

Lesser princes and dignitaries were relegated to this stunning auxiliary palace, which has been renovated and converted into a luxurious restaurant and cultural center.
Summer time is definitely the season for this spot, as the tables move out to the seaside terrace, creating a spectacular dining experience little more than an arm's length from scores of jellyfish.

The seafood dishes are worth mentioning, if not only for the festivity of the occasion, than for the medallions of swordfish topped with a seafood ragout. Twinkling Bosphorus views and nighttime sea breezes are romance at its best, while Feriye is equally popular during its Sunday brunch service.

Sait Halim Paşa

Sait Halim Paşa was the eldest of Prince Abdulhalim Pasha's four sons and the grandson of Kavalali Mehmet Ali Pasha, Governor of Egypt.  Abdulhalim Pasa bought this mansion, which was built in 1864 from its previous owners, but then considered it to be a wreck and not big enough to suit Egyptian aristocratic taste.  So he instructed architect Petraki Adamandidis of Canakkale to rebuild it.  After Abdulhalim Pasha's death in 1890 the property was inherited by his nine sons. Sait Halim Pasha, gathering all shares from his brothers came into the sole ownership of the mansion in 1894.  Today, this charming mansion with its 10 separate halls of different capacities and 2 gardens is one of the most popular venues for private receptions in Istanbul.
