Eminonu Square
Overview
A historic waterfront square anchoring the old city, framed by the New Mosque and the entrance to the Spice Bazaar. Street vendors, ferries, and some of the city's best-known fish sandwich stalls make this a genuine hub of daily Istanbul life. See our Best Walking Tours collection for a full old-city route starting from here.
