    Thanks to show the beautiful balat. I am south African and went to visit in March. The boat cruise was also 👍. Food very good. The blue mosque another tourist place.i bought some lovely clothing from the market like victory secret which was so cheap. Slight imperfections great price. Subways are so fast and cheap. Want to go back. God bless

    We visited last year and didnt enter from the river side like most tourists, we ended up getting off on the complete other end and walking down towards the river. I absolutely LOVE istanbul but that 20min walk was the first time we felt scared, unsafe and out of place. There were no tourists and just all locals who were staring at us. Couldnt get out of there fast enough.

    This is so funny, I was just in that neighborhood about four days ago. We took the very streets you walked on. When we walked past the auto repair shop and down that street it was a little sketch but was a nice trip.

    We have been to the Balat neighborhood twice. Our dear Turkish friend's niece lives there. They have a restaurant and a hostel. it is near the Chora Church which is our favorite. We were there at night too, We felt safe.

    50 years can't be considered an old building. I think you were wrong, most of the buildings look from the 30s to 50s. It's a very normal and nice area in my opinion, I don't see anything strange.

      Balat is a neighborhood in Istanbul. You can check routes on Google maps to get there, I find them reliable
