For Children
Great places for families and children
Children may spend lots of time here and also pretty educational for them too. At there they can role play as some jobs. (fire fighters, cooks, pilots etc.) It is a well designed place for children to have fun and spend some time. But I should warn you, you may get tired since it is not a small place.

Kumpir and Waffle feast at Ortaköy Square
There are bunch of places you can eat Ortaköy’s special baked and stuffed potato called ‘Kumpir’. There is a street at Ortaköy Square’s entrance which is full of these buffets , we don’t need to call a name you can pick which you like, they are all really good. After the meal we recommend waffle at there. (If you are interested in accessories or souvenirs I suggest you to take a look at the stands located at there)

Tips at the bus with the baby carriage
Normally busses have place for baby carriage but at the crowded hours (example, after 5 o’clock at the weekdays) there won’t be any place to put it in. I recommend you to consider that. If you have a chance consider kangaroo baby carrier. 👀

Bosphorus Tours from Ortakoy
You can take a Bosphorus tour by ferry departing from Ortaköy coast. I suggest you to not miss a pleasant Bosphorus experience. (If you have a chance, I recommend you to go at sunset.) 🌅
