Istanbul Aquarium

One of the largest themed aquariums in the world (more than 1,500 animal species), located in the Florya district on the European side of Istanbul. It is especially popular for its concept of themed zones that follow 'the journey from the Black Sea to the Pacific' through 16 ecosystems — the Black Sea, the Mediterranean, the Aegean, the Indian Ocean, and the Pacific. Interactive exhibits with regularly updated educational programs. Restaurant and café on the premises. Ideal for families — easily accessible by metro or bus from the city center.
