Buca at a glance
Buca is a densely populated residential district south-east of central İzmir, spreading over the hills behind the city centre. Its older quarter is known for mansions and garden houses built by Levantine families. The district hosts several educational institutions, most notably Dokuz Eylül University's Tınaztepe Campus, so it has a large student population. Buca Pond (Buca Göleti) and the green spaces around it are a popular weekend spot for locals.
Newer parts of Buca are full of gated housing complexes and apartment blocks. Please enter your full address, including the complex name, block and flat number, so your driver can bring you to the correct entrance. On some narrow hillside streets, the driver may drop you at the closest accessible point.
