A weekend in Istanbul with Ubego

Istanbul rewards the curious. One weekend, one quest, and a route that stitches Karaköy, Balat and the walls together.

Day one: the water side

Start at Karaköy before the crowds, cross to Balat by ferry, end above the Golden Horn.

Day two: the land side

The walls, a market lunch, and a rooftop finish in Beyoğlu.
