Beykoz Unmissables

Beykoz combines historical sites with natural retreats on Istanbul's Asian side. Highlights include the Byzantine ruins of Yoros Castle and the 14th-century Riva Castle. Visitors can explore the Polish heritage of Polonezköy or take a ferry to Anadolu Kavağı and Kanlıca, the latter famous for its traditional yogurt. The area offers expansive green spaces like Otağtepe Fatih Korusu and Mihrabat Grove, providing panoramic views of the Bosphorus and the Yavuz Sultan Selim Bridge, one of the world's tallest suspension bridges.
