A great location for tourists who are passing through. Good transport interchange, round-the-clock exchangers, and cafes nearby work for a long time. The square itself attracts attention only for the first time.
The place is a must-visit. Do not forget to buy a Balik ekmek with ayran. There are a lot of people on holidays and significant dates for Turkey. You can have a lot of fun during the holidays. On a normal day, of course, an ordinary square. But the holiday is very atmospheric.
This place is interesting because a large number of people gather here after sunset, who just sit on benches, chat, drink tea (it is served here in disposable paper cups) and enjoy the evening coolness. There are many very colorful, unusual and informal residents of Istanbul and tourists in one place. There are even representatives of the oldest profession who differ significantly from the usual image. In my opinion, it's pretty safe here.
