Guten Morgen Istanbul

Berliner in Kadikoy

"Guten Morgen in Istanbul is a very quiet, simple place to have a coffee together with a delicious coffee, despite its busy location. Perfect in summer!"

Guten Morgen is a very quiet place; even though you are in the middle of Moda, a very popular neighbourhood, that's what it feels like. It's a new discovery for me and it seems like it will take its place in my favourite list.

When you see Guten Morgen, you really feel the vibe and its simple, cosy and friendly atmosphere. After having my coffee with their delicious cookie, it feels like I'm in Berlin, as their design and decoration are very similar to Berlin cafes. It is also a very pet-friendly place. During sunny summer days, it's a great idea to spend an afternoon while feeling the neighbourhood life here.

Since Guten Morgen means "Good Morning", they have good alternatives for breakfast. Homemade sandwiches with sourdough bread, cookies and healthy desserts with delicious coffee. So let's enjoy.

Holy Fragrance sellers

Various perfumes

"Holy Fragrance" sellers sit just outside mosques and provide refreshing perfumes. I would recommend the ones in Istanbul's Beyazit and Yeni mosques.

The Istanbul "Naval Museum" is one of the best museums in Turkey - no, I think it's one of the world's most exceptional, and we're lucky to have it.
