    Leb-i Derya Cafe Bar istanbul

    İstanbul has the world’s pearl necklace: The Bosphorus. Thank’s to its geographical structure, the city has many hills and valley’s and Golden Horn around the Bosphorus which gives the chance to see this beauty from different angles. 

    Istanbul is one of the richest cities in terms of restaurants, hotels, cafe’s bars, teahouses and leisure places. There are many cheap and expensive places all around and most of them have great views of İstanbul. So preparing a list without the price category would be very hard, also the popularity will be other criteria because there are always some hidden places still waiting to get popular. The list from Foursquare useres are mixed with cafes, bars restaurants, hotels which have amazing view.
