Directions

A lively, working-class street market sprawling through the heart of Beşiktaş that locals rely on for fresh produce, olives, cheeses, and cheap textiles. Tuesday and Saturday are the main market days when stalls pack the side streets near the fish market. The fish hall adjacent to the market is a genuine highlight — grab a balık ekmek (fish sandwich) from the stalls outside. It gets extremely crowded on Saturday mornings, so arrive early or expect to jostle.
