NYE Celebrations

There will be thousands people including locals and international visitors gather in Taksim Square and Istiklal Street in the City center where all around there is the sound of blaring horns from the hundreds of vehicles traversing the streets of Istanbul. The NYE countdown to midnight reaches its dramatic ending. The skies above the city are lit by spectacular NYE fireworks launched form vantage points over the city.

If you will be looking for the best places to watch NYE fireworks, the Fatih district corresponds to what was, until the Ottoman conquest, the whole of the city, across from which stood the Genoese citadel of Galata. Those Genoese fortifications were largely demolished in the 19th century, leaving only the Galata Tower.

Events

Galata is now a part of Beyoğlu district, which forms Istanbul’s commercial and entertainment centre around Taksim Square. Restaurants featuring foreign cuisines are mainly concentrated in the Beyoğlu district. Residing along İstiklal Avenue is the Çiçek Pasajı, now home to wine-houses, pubs, cafe, restaurants, etc.

Many tourists choose to celebrate New Year’s Eve with special dinners on Bosphorus cruises. There will be many tourist agents offering these interesting services. For those preferring a more sedate setting, or to take in a show the Kervansaray Restaurant is among the most preferred places to visit while Orient House, Sultana’s, Gar Restaurant and Istanbulin all offer a great night out for the last evening of the old year.

Frankly speaking, anywhere on the Golden Horn will provide a lively evening’s entertainment as well providing close proximity to the coastal areas where the view of midnight is truly spectacular.
