Garipçe Village has a mood inside Istanbul but far from Istanbul.. A calm and peaceful breathing point, away from the crowd and chaos of the city. We created a route for ourselves to see where we can go in Istanbul at the weekend and, starting from Uskumruköy, we visited Kilyos, Demirciköy, Rumeli Feneri Castle and Garipçe, respectively.
