Taksim
Square, at the northern
limit of Beyoglu ,
is the center of the more modern
and upscale portion of Istanbul.
It
has fewer major sights than Sultanahmet in
Old Istanbul south of the Golden
Horn; but the upscale boutiques, fine
restaurantsand trendy cafes
and bars of Istiklal
Caddesi and Cumhuriyet Caddesi
are only steps away, and Dolmabahçe
Palace is a 15-minute stroll
downhill on the shores of the Bosphorus.
