Haydarpasa Train Station in considered one of ancient treasure of Turkey. Most amazingly is that the station is located right at the very tip of Asia continent along a beautiful coastline just over a mile away from Europe :-) . This station is one among the most photography in Istanbul.
Beautiful and grand old railway station, located right by the water, check out the skyline of the European side from here (especially around sunset, it's magical!) and watch the ferries go by
March 2018- Restorations are ongoing and entry into the station isn’t permitted.
Awesome place. Wish trains were running but great to step back in time to a place that should be preserved for history.
Looking forward to visiting again once the refurbishment is finished:)
An incredibly beautiful historic building. I've even been lucky enough to hear impromptu performances by the philharmonic.
Too bad it's closed. The Orient express used to terminate here. Just offices now. Cannot visit.
Haydarpasa Main Train station building is amazing architecture from Ottoman period. Located in Kadikoy asian side of Istanbul
The palatial Haydarpasa Terminal is perched on the banks of the Bosphorus in the Kadıköy neighborhood. The site was chosen for the terminus of the Baghdad Railway and the Hejaz Railway in 1904,
Wonderful Historical place. with water view.
Station is currently closed as of early 2016 due to Marmaray construction. You can pass through, however, and admire the historic architecture of the station. Pictures are allowed, but be mindful and cooperative with any police in the area.
