Bakırköy at a glance
Bakırköy is a long-established district on the Sea of Marmara in the south-west of the European side. Seafront walking and cycling paths, the shopping streets around İstanbul Avenue and İncirli, the Ataköy marina and several large shopping centres shape daily life here. Atatürk Airport, for many years Istanbul's main airport, is also in this district; in 2019 scheduled passenger flights moved to Istanbul Airport.
Because of this change, some travellers still plan around the old airport, so please check which airport your flight uses and add your flight number to the booking to avoid confusion. For residences and housing complexes in Ataköy, adding the block and door details helps your driver arrive at the correct entrance.
