Istanbul's Füniküler (funicular) running between Kabatas on the European shore of the Bosphorus, south of Dolmabahçe Palace, and Taksim Square, the busy center of Beyoglu, was inaugurated in June 2006.

This short underground funicular tram is a crucial link in Istanbul's transportation system, linking the Zeytinburnu-Kabatas tram and the Kabatas ferry docks to the Metro and Nostalgic Istiklal Caddesi tram at Taksim Square.

Pay for your short ride (about YTL1.30) by token or, better yet, with an Akbil electronic transit pass.
