Location of The Local Exclusive is literaly 5 minutes walking distance from all the hustle and bustle of this metropol and still tucked away in a quite neighborhood for a good night sleep. Who hasn’t heard of landmarks such as Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palace, Blue Mosque, Dolmabahçe Palace, Grand Bazaar, and the Spice Bazaar. There are the lesser known, but not less beautiful, spots such as Süleymaniye Mosque, Basilica Cistern, the Galata Tower, as well as numerous churches from the Byzantine era. All of them are literally 5 to 35 minutes walking distance from your home. Despite the city’s age, thankfully many remains of Istanbul’s opulent past remained intact. The cultural heritage of the metropolis is impressive. If you would like to further explore the city nearest public transportation is in 10 minutes walking distance, the Sultanahmet main Tram stop. The centuries old mix of cultures also had a huge impact on the food scene. In Istanbul, you can enjoy different cuisines, varying from authentic Ottoman food, over typical Turkish food with its delicious mezes and meat or fish dishes, to the modern kitchens.
