Things to Do in Hobyar, Istanbul

Istanbul's mercantile heart between Sirkeci, Eminönü, and the Grand Bazaar. The Spice Bazaar and New Mosque face the Golden Horn, while the grand post office, hans, and lanes of coffee, hardware, and textile traders preserve the district's centuries-old role as the city's warehouse, counting house, and point of arrival.
