Türkü Bar, Beyoglu

Colorful kilims(traditional flat-woven rugs) and bright hand-woven carpets adorn the walls of this attractive establishment. Located in the center of one of the busiest bar streets in Beyoglu, it's often brimming with fans of traditional Türkish music and aniseed-flavoured raki.The front wall is removed in summer, which allows a breeze to cool things off a bit. Regular patrons have a habit of forming wriggling conga lines and bouncing in circles around the potted trees on the street before winding back into the bar - this place is definitely not for shy retiring types!
