Places around Istanbul that can be helpful to any academics who have recently moved to the big city, especially Ph.D students and visiting scholars. **ADDITIONS**Please follow these guidelines when adding or editing locations.1) If possible, please include the address, website, and phone numbers so that users can find pinpoints easily. A review of any sort will be really helpful, too!2) Please use the same icons:Red Pins: Buildings of academic institutions and foreign country schools or places where lectures take place. Yellow Pins: MuseumsGreen Pins: Archives, Libraries, and Goverment InstitutionsBlue Pins: Public Transport3) This shared map is for museums, restaurants, and fun/unusual places around Istanbul that are modern and have a tendency to shut down/move/open frequently. We do not post the locations of historical sites/structures/etc. because they haven't moved in hundreds of years and probably won't. Please don't post historical sites as it creates more clutter.

If you::text like liver, look nowhere else. But the meal is a little expensive (about 20 TL). There is chicken too if someone doesn't::text like liver.

13: Tavanarası

Take your guests here if you want to impress them with a little secret restaurant that only you (and the rest of Istanbul between the ages of 20-40) know about. Seriously though, it is good, get any of the casseroles, the one with eggplant and bechamel sauce is especially nice. On the street, look for the framer's shop. Then walk into the little alcove directly to the left and take the elevator to the top floor.
