Arnavutkoy Travel Guide: Best Places for a Perfect Day Out
Arnavutkoy, which has managed to remain one of the most beloved neighborhoods of Istanbul, is one of the locations where every passerby looks longingly and says, 'I wish I lived here,' with its colorful row houses. Arnavutkoy makes you feel like you are in a peaceful and lively place for a moment, rather than in Istanbul, and its unique Bosphorus view brings you back to the city. So, if you ask what places to visit, our content is waiting for you with Arnavutkoy's historic buildings and most popular locations. Let's take a mini tour together!
Kazıklı Yol
Arnavutköy gezimize Kazıklı Yol ile başlayalım. İstanbul'un tarihi dokusunu koruyan sayılı yer kaldı ve bunlardan biri de Arnavutköy. Eski İstanbul'un küçük bir resmiyle buluşacağınız Kazıklı Yol'da yürüyüşe çıkmalı ve Arnavutköy'ün rengarenk ve tarihi esintiler barındıran evlerini görmelisiniz.
Aya Strati Taksiarhi Rum Ortodoks Kilisesi
Şimdi de son hali 1899 yılında inşa edilen Aya Strati Taksiarhi Rum Ortodoks Kilisesi ile devam edelim. On altıncı yüzyılda Rumlar tarafından 'iyileştirici gücü' olduğuna inanılan baş melek Mikail'e ithaf edilen kilise yıllar içinde tahrip olduğu için birçok kez restore edilse de görülmeye değer yerlerden.

Akıntıburnu
İstanbul'un sahil yollarının en keyiflilerinden olan Akıntıburnu da temiz hava ve eşsiz boğaz manzarasıyla buluşabilmeniz için güzel bir seçim olabilir. Denize nazır bir çay keyfi yapmak içinizi huzurla dolduracak.
Izetabad Pavilion
Our last suggestion is the Izetabad Pavilion. Kasır, which is currently the headquarters of Bayraktar Holding, has witnessed many important names in history. To get detailed information about the Izetabad Pavilion, which was gifted to Janissary Agha Hasan Khalifa by Sultan Murad IV, and to travel through history, you can read the famous book called “Izetabad Pavilion, The Time That Flows through Akıntıburnu”, which reveals the history of Izetabad Pavilion and Akıntıburnu with its documents.
The Streets of Arnavutkoy
Many of us have seen the streets of Istanbul leading to the sea from TV series-movies. Here are some of those streets in Arnavutköy. Historical textures bearing traces of Greek architecture on both sides of you, and the sea is in front of you... Welcome to Arnavutköy!
Since we are talking about the prominent places to visit in Arnavutköy, let's talk about a few places where you can have a pleasant time.
Any
In fact, Any is one of the most famous and favorite neighborhood pubs of Arnavutköy. The place, which stands out both for its atmosphere, its friendly employees and its tasty cocktails, has a dynamic energy at any time of the day. With its design and the street it is located on, you should definitely stop by while you are ready for Any Arnavutköy, whose ambience has risen quite a lot.

Melina Katina
Melina Katina officially bears the mark of mastery in all the flavors it includes on its menu. Especially the taste of their burgers prepared with Preztel bread remains on the palate. In addition to the main dishes, you can go to the place that has successful options for breakfast on its menu to have a pleasant time after a mini Arnavutkoy trip.

Hide Arnavutkoy
Hide, which is waiting to welcome you in the most beautiful way with its lush garden, is one of the right choices to start the day well, especially with a delicious breakfast. although the venue, which opened in 2020, is still new on the streets of Arnavutköy, it has managed to become one of the best in Arnavutköy by endearing itself. We say give a chance to Hide, which has perhaps the most peaceful and beautiful garden in the region.

Xunta
Another of the hip cocktail places of Arnavutköy is Xunta. Yes, cocktails make Xunta quite prominent, but its design, sea view terrace and related employees make the place even higher. And when beautiful music is added to all this, it's hard not to get drunk with pleasure, we say think about it.

Kavanoz
Our next suggestion is Kavanoz, one of the most popular jars in Arnavutköy for those who like shabby places. We are not exaggerating if we say that you will find the serenity and peace you are looking for in a hidden backyard decorated with chirping bird sounds. It is difficult to put into words the unique atmosphere of the Kavanoz, it would be best for you to take a breath there as soon as possible.

Rustique Mutfak
Both the atmosphere of the street where it is located, the atmosphere created by the design of the place, and the flavors... Rustique Kitchen has the ability to get a 10 out of 10 on every subject you can think of. It will be a great background, especially for those who like to take photos, the kind of place that everyone who is around should stop by.

Piccola Pizzeria
If you can't get enough of wandering the beautiful streets of Arnavutköy, having something to eat and drink at the sidewalk tables of Piccolo Pizzeria will be the best choice. Since the street where it is located is closed to traffic, the place that evaluates it well is one of the most important in Arnavutköy when it comes to pizza.
Address: Arnavutkoy, Kamacı Sk. No:5, 34345 Besiktas/Istanbul
Antica Locanda
And we have come to our last suggestion. Antica Locanda, where the years have not worn off, on the contrary, its success has increased, is one of the first things that come to mind when it comes to Arnavutköy's venues. Antica Locanda, which brings Italian flavors to its customers, has a romantic ambience, especially in its interior, but our favorite place was definitely the small garden.
