The bridge is like a bridge :) Connects the main street of Istanbul with the sights. Downstairs there are many fish cafes with exorbitant prices and, according to rumors, not the most delicious assortment. Beautiful views open to the Bosphorus and mosques. You will not pass by in any way. I recommend taking a walk on foot.

The bridge is quite dirty, there are a lot of fishermen, it's such a pleasure to walk on it, because it stinks of fish. If you walk along the lower floor, there are many restaurants there- the price tag is high, the barkers constantly distract from the walk.

One of my favorite places to walk is the sea, people, fishermen, cafes, motor ships) just stand on the bridge and look around) walk back and forth, See what the fishermen caught))) you can walk along the bottom, along the top, on one side, on the other) from both ends of the bridge and in the middle there are crossings to other sides.

An amazing place at the junction of Europe and Asia!! Realizing this fact makes your stay on the bridge an even more exciting experience! There are a lot of cool restaurants and cafes on the first level – the prices correspond to the hype of the place

It's a good place, if there is no strong wind, then there are quite a lot of people who take pictures. There are touts, I suggest you take a picture with a peacock.

Beautiful views, it was windy in April. There are many cafes on the lower level. From above, fishermen catch fish from the bridge. We haven't been to the cafe- there are a lot of people on the bridge.

Well, the atmosphere is peculiar, of course, especially the cafe under the bridge, everything seems to be fine, the only thing is dirty, but as a whole it's a very interesting place

There are always plenty of fishermen here. Fishing in the very center of Istanbul is such a vacation. There are a lot of restaurants under the bridge, but their prices are very high, and it is worth moving away from the bridge 100 meters and the same Dorado or Sea Bass can be eaten in a restaurant three to five times cheaper. But the view from the bridge is, of course, wonderful.

It is a very beautiful place, however, as is the whole of Istanbul. You can walk at any time of the day, there are always a lot of people, fishermen and shoe cleaners))). There are cool cafes under the bridge overlooking the Bosphorus

The place is beautiful, there are many fish restaurants, but everything is designed for wealthy tourists with a tight purse))). If you have the money, then you will like everything. But you can do with a cup of coffee with a stunning view of the Bosphorus

It's a fun place where fishermen catch fish on empty hooks and immediately sell the fish. There is very little room for passersby to disperse. From the bridge there is a cool view of the water where boats scurry back and forth. There are many cafes under the bridge.

Classic Turkey. When I come to Istanbul, I often visit this bridge. Eat fish and other seafood. I really like this place

Very intrusive barkers in restaurants on the lower tier of the bridge. The prices in restaurants are horse-drawn, while the cuisine is low-level. I do not recommend eating there, the place is designed to deceive tourists.

The ideal morning in Istanbul is to wake up to the cries of seagulls, go out to the embankment, look at the Bosphorus... Then go to the fish market, order four oysters, and pour prosecco into plastic cups. Then take a Balik Ekmek and walk to Sultanahmet...

There are many cafes with quite tasty fish, the prices are the same as in other cafes in the area, but the view here is wonderful. After the meal, unlimited tea is brought for free, but immediately ask if there is a service and a discount

By itself, the bridge does not look like a landmark. A squat bridge with a bunch of fish cafes/restaurants at the bottom.
A transport hub, yes, but a landmark, no.

An iconic place in Istanbul. You can take the tram, but it's better to walk. It doesn't matter which way. If you go from the old town (Yeminomi), you can take a fanicular up to the Galatai Tower or to the Karokei pier and get from there to the eastern part of the city. On the other hand, the Egyptian market and the old town. As you walk, you can enjoy a beautiful view of the city and a lot of fishermen

A bridge is like a bridge. Restaurants are located below. Fishermen stand on both sides of the bridge. So just getting up and looking from the bridge won't work.

A bridge where you can walk from one area of Istanbul to another and eat on the way)))
Excellent fish cafes and restaurants. It's delicious, the smell of fresh fish is quite strong.
You can walk from the top without going into the cafe and look at the local fishermen

A must-visit place in Istanbul. There are a lot of fishermen and cats on the bridge. The hubbub, the noise of the big city. An atmospheric place. Only there you can take street fish bureks. There are many fish restaurants with delicious fresh fish. The fish market. There are many attractions near the bridge, so you definitely can't pass by..

In truth, the center. The geographical and historical of Istanbul, and indeed the rest of the world, without exaggeration. It is from this point that you can walk to any landmark, be it. Strolling street, tower, historical center. It includes a bazaar and mosques. And where it is impossible to walk, there is a convenient interchange in the form of a subway tram or ferry crossing.

An iconic place, a large number of places to eat and drink, and if you go up to the upper tier, along which cars are traveling, you will meet a huge number of fishermen, although I did not see any fish from them🤣🤣🤣

A beautiful clean bridge, restaurants under the bridge. There are a lot of fishermen on the bridge. Shoe cleaners are sitting. You can take a boat ride for 150 liras. On Sultanahmet Square, the same thing is offered for 20€. A colorful object.

A cool place both in terms of the panorama opening onto the shores of the Golden Horn and in terms of numerous restaurants and cafes. Public transport stops and ferries are conveniently located nearby , there is a lot of delicious street food in the surrounding areas .

A very nice bridge. It's interesting to walk around it. Beautiful view of Basfort. There are a lot of local fishermen on the top, catching small fish. There are restaurants at the bottom of the bridge, you can sit and admire the beauty and have a delicious meal (but not on a budget).

it really stinks of fish, I don't know how you can sit and eat in cafes. on the second level of the bridge, fishermen stand along its entire length, catching some minnows, releasing small ones, and putting large ones in a tin can. from the first level, you can take pictures of jellyfish.

I'm very disappointed. I've read so many rave reviews about him. The reality turned out to be much worse. The touts are practically grabbing their hands, the smell of rancid oil and fish is quite dirty

I think everyone knows this place, great views of the bay, lots of restaurants, overall very atmospheric…
Well, the cons: it's not pleasant to walk along the lower part of the restaurant, they are very actively inviting you to cafes everywhere, you get tired of rejecting very quickly and you want to go through it all sooner, and of course everything looks tired, on holidays and weekends it is very crowded there)
Well, beggars sorting garbage from cafes…
