As autumn arrives in Istanbul, the Üsküdar district’s Kandilli neighborhood has turned into a stunning display of color. Shades of green, orange, and red merge with the golden glow of the setting sun, forming a breathtaking panorama along the Istanbul Strait.
Drone footage captured the warm sunset light reflecting off the calm waters, with the silhouette of the Fatih Sultan Mehmet Bridge completing the picture-perfect view. Historic mansions such as the Kıbrıslı, Abud, and Hadi Semi add to the scene’s charm, while restored wooden houses in Kandilli preserve the timeless architecture of old Istanbul.
Far from the city’s bustle, Kandilli offers visitors a tranquil escape where Istanbul’s cultural heritage meets the serene beauty of nature under the mesmerizing autumn sunset.
