"Nowadays to obtain information from the internet it is necessary to browse tens or even hundreds of websites to find what you are looking for. Even within these websites you will have to search amongst all the information to find the details which you are looking for. We believe that websites should be more easily arranged according to subject matter to enable people to find what they are looking for more easily.

There are many websites about Istanbul but it can be very difficult to find the information you are looking for. We believe that a fundamental distinction which is not currently made on these websites is the division between the European and Asian sides of the city.

Therefore we have created a unique website devoted only to the Asian side of Istanbul for people seeking information about this side of the city.

This website is for those people with an interest in and an affection for the Anatolian side of Istanbul.

The Asian side of Istanbul possesses many unique qualities which can be summed up in the glorious sunsets seen on this side of the city. Being primarily residential, the Asian side has a tranquil calm and quietness often missing on the European side.

The aim of this website is to introduce the Anatolian side of Istanbul to you. We want to introduce the Anatolian side to you and provide you with any information you require.

We hope to provide interested people with constantly updated information about this continually expanding and developing part of the city, Anatolian Istanbul."
