Description
Free Photo | Çukurcuma
Çukurcuma, located in the Beyoğlu District of Istanbul, is a center for vintage and antique shops. In addition to being a mecca for antique hunters, the neighborhood hosts Orhan Pamuk’s Museum of Innocence. Orhan Pamuk conceived of his novel and museum consecutively. While writing his novel, Pamuk scoured Çukurcuma seeking mementoes from mid-20th-century Istanbul. The museum is a representation of the things used, seen, collected and dreamed of by his characters. All of the items are meticulously arranged in boxes and display cabinets.

Made in Istanbul, Turkey
Alphonse de Lamartine wrote, “If one had but a single glance to give the world, one should gaze on Istanbul.” Istanbul, once known as Constantinople, is the only city in the world to straddle two continents: Europe and Asia. Over the last 2000 years, it has also been the capital of three empires: Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman. Divided by the Bosphorus Strait, today Istanbul is home to over 15 million residents. Istanbul is a study of contrast: ancient and modern; conservative and progressive; chaotic and relaxed. With a rich history and warm culture, it is one of the most inspiring cities in the world.
