About Metro

Istanbul’s metro is the fastest way around a city of heavy traffic. The M2 line runs from Yenikapı across the Golden Horn bridge to Şişhane (for Galata), Taksim, Şişli and Levent; the M11 serves Istanbul Airport; on the Asian side, the M4 runs from Kadıköy to Sabiha Gökçen Airport. Use your İstanbulkart.

Why it's on our list

  • M2 Yenikapı–Taksim–Hacıosman

Opening hours, prices and seasonal openings change, so please check with Metro before you go.
