What to see on a walking tour of Üsküdar on the Asian side of Istanbul?

The Üsküdar waterfront offers a view of Yıldız Palace across the Bosphorus — a great spot for photos and an evening walk.

For a relaxed, picturesque walk, check out the Kuzguncuk or Balat districts — narrow streets lined with colorful houses.

Start the walking route at Fethi Pasha Grove in Üsküdar — a beautiful spot with a stunning view over the Bosphorus.

From there you can walk to Icadiye Street with its colorful houses and many cafes, then continue on foot to the Beylerbeyi district, which is also very scenic. The whole route is doable on foot.
