Camlica Hill

Camlica Hill ,  Istanbul in all its brilliance, offering a unique perspective on the city.  Located about 4km from Uskudar, Camlica is split into two hills: Küçük Çamlica (‘Little Pine Hill’) and Büyük Çamlica (‘Big Pine Hill’). Büyük Çamlica is the highest point in Istanbul at 267 m above sea level.

We spend about 45 minutes on top of the hill and had our morning tea there.  The views from Büyük Çamlica are truly amazing, with a panoramic vista of all of Istanbul’s main waterways, the Bosphorus Bridge, the historic Eminonu Peninsula, the Princes’ Islands and even Mount Uludag near Bursa.
