The largest and most beautiful island of the Prince Islands is Adalar. We walked all day. Unforgettable impressions, grab food for the cats in the park where there are picnics on the island, they are very hungry))
We were on the coast at the pier, then walked along the streets, saw Trotsky's house, the Cathedral of Christ, etc., then climbed the mountain to the very top where the monastery and the restaurant, if you go deep into it, there is a very beautiful place for the review. Then we went down and went to the picnic park, there is a paid entrance, inexpensive about 300 rubles. There we had a snack with food bought at the store at the pier, rested and went back in the evening we sat in a restaurant by the pier and ate balyk durum very tasty. After dark we boarded the ferry and left for the city))

I liked the Princes' Islands, especially after the noisy Istanbul, it's nice, quiet, and beautiful views. There are many pretty cottages, wooden houses, bright flowers, palm trees. Must-visit

In general, the island is not bad for walking, a lot of cozy buns, clean air, just half an hour from the center of Istanbul is such a Mediterranean town, a good option if there is no way to get further than Istanbul, but it is not worth special attention there is nothing particularly interesting here

Come for the whole day. You can rent a bike for about 200-300 liras for the whole day (you need one passport), but it is a little difficult to ride them through the mountains. There are many cafes, market shops and department stores near the port at reasonable prices, it even seemed a little cheaper than in Istanbul. If you walk through the market square, there will be free streets where transport does not pass so often and very few people walk. There are shops on the island's waterfront. There are a lot of cats near the houses, they were met in almost every yard.
A ferry runs from the island for 80 lira (as of September 2024) every hour, the last one from this island at 19:00

The largest of the Prince Islands and the fourth in a row. The main advice is to spare no effort and climb to the top of the island! There is a Greek monastery there, and the steepest spot overlooking the sea and other islands. It will be cool if you catch a sunset there. In addition to the mountain, there are many cafes, parks, beaches and roads on the island that you can walk around the entire island in a day.

Turkey is a completely different country here. You have to come here, just to understand it with all your soul.
If possible, take cat food with you. There are a lot of people who are sooo thin.
I wanted to relax here for a few days in the summer to enjoy this aesthetic!

It's a great place! Be sure to visit. Don't take tours. Take a simple river tram and get to the island for 10 times cheaper. The remains of Trotsky's house can be seen.

A clean island, there are no problems with transport, which is good. There are many places to eat, the sights are interesting, but it is better to walk by yourself, since not everything is shown on excursions, And if they are shown, then out of the corner of your eye.

What is this island like?
A picturesque place, with beautiful views, clear sea, delicious cuisine, I recommend burgers to the Acacia institution. I also really liked the cafe dining room by the sea. The only thing is that very expensive beaches are not justified from the word at all.

I have never regretted that I went to the island for the whole day! After the bustling Istanbul, it's nice to walk along the quiet paths. There are also interesting places. Walk to the abandoned Greek orphanage - this place is simply impressive!

A gorgeous place, I was in May, I really liked it, the only drawback is the inability to rent any wheels for yourself, because there is a lot to see, but alas, you will not be able to pass everything

If you go for a few hours in the evening in the cold season and are not going to climb the mountain, there is nothing much to do here, the streets consist of similar white cottages, the reviews about Trotsky's house are absolutely true.

The most beautiful place, a must-visit))) There are a lot of impressions and not expensive, as it is now all over Istanbul. On a regular ferry while you swim, it's still an adventure))) and the island itself, with its houses, cafes, is just a fairy tale 🥰
