As soon as I arrive in Istanbul for the second time...I'm going to live in this area, it's decided! Nice promenade, cozy places, not as noisy as in Sultanahmet district. Bookstore, coffee, seals, shops, mosque, everything you need is nearby.

One of the first symbols that comes to mind when we say Kadıköy. I didn't know if the nonsense of having a photo taken with a child sitting on it during the holiday alone was a custom. Its history is as follows:
it is the Alsa-Loren region, which could not be shared between France and Germany in the 1800s, is the reason for Dec. This small but important region has been constantly changing hands between the French and Germans over the years. Dec. it was built in Paris in the 1860s to symbolize the war in which the French defeated the Germans in this region. It is the work of the sculptor Isidore Bonheure. With his anger and greatness, he symbolizes the power of the French, but it did not last long, Alsace-Loren was retaken by German general Bismarck at the Battle of Sedan in 1870. The 'power of the French' also goes to Germany.
His rest in Germany will not last long either. The German emperor II. Due to their friendship, Wilhelm gave it to the Union and Progress Society in 1917, and the Union and Progress Society to Enver Pasha. The statue is placed in the garden of Enver Pasha's palace. 1. At the end of the World War II, Enver Pasha went abroad and the statue was forgotten in the garden of that palace.
Not much, about 50 years later he moves to the garden of the Hilton Hotel. Then he is taken to the front of Lütfi Kırdar Congress and Exhibition Center, and then to Taksim Gezi Park.
in the early 1970s, travel to the Anatolian side of Istanbul began. Of course, the first stop in Kadıköy is not Altıyol; after all, you are destined to travel.
It remains in front of the Kadıköy Municipality for about 20 years. In the early 1990s, it moved to its current location.
