The town was used to recognize the edge of the city once upon a time. However, it turns out a town that is covered with skyscrapers throughout Maslak and created its own world. Within the transformation of the town, Maslak is still fascinating to people.
There are skyscrapers on the one hand while also offering you shopping, historical and artistic places. Let’s see what kind of amenities await us in Maslak.
The history of the town is based on the Ottoman Era. There is even a mansion belonging to Abdulhamid Sultan and also numerous buildings owned by him. In those days, the town was fully covered with the forest – which has been still covered with Belgrad Forest – and it was a suitable place for hunting and finding peace. Together with being close to Fatih where we identify the town as ‘’Historical Peninsula’’ nowadays, the town is also 15 minutes away from the center by car. Due to traveling with a horse that takes much more time than a car, the town had a great distance to rule the center and enough distance to be outside of it. Nowadays, this mansion is used for giving breakfast services to people in the city.
On the other hand, the center of the town hosts shining buildings belonging to both local and worldwide brands. Maslak –which has a small European city population on weekdays – is also one of the most attractive towns at weekends either thanks to new wave restaurants and amazing design entertainment places. You can taste a new coffee, see a new art gallery and more in a break time at your work. There are many Maslak-lovers because numerous events are arranged on weekends that continue to attract people.
One of the featured art centers of Maslak is the Elgiz Museum which is known as the first private museum of contemporary art in Turkey at the same time. It is possible to see local and foreign sculptors’ works at this spacious museum. It will be a great experience to look at these works covered with the view of plazas.
Besides, the town offers you a highly affluent customer base. It is possible to witness a luxury cafe and restaurant all over the town because of people who work in a high-level position as well as finding posh property for sale in Istanbul is quite convenient. No need to say that here is the heart of finance in the country so that you can see people wearing suits on each street. In addition to it, Maslak is a hometown for one of the most known campuses which is ‘’ITU Taskisla’’ so that the student population is also common in this town.
