It is closed for reconstruction after fire.
This historical station used to be the door of İstanbul to Anatolia. Many trains from different cities used to come here. I for myself used to get on the trains from Afyonkarahisar to here. The restourant in here was really really really really good.
Haydarpaşa station... Trains for Asian destinations used to leave from the historic Haydarpaşa Station (pictured above right), a ferry ride across the Bosphorus from Sirkeci Station where the European trains arrive. Haydarpaşa station was built in 1908, a gift from the German Kaiser to the Ottoman Sultan, and named after one of the Sultan's generals. It was closed to long-distance trains in February 2012 when engineering work started to rebuild the rail approaches to Istanbul in connection with both the new high-speed line to Ankara and the new Bosphorus rail tunnel. However, welcome news is that TCDD ultimately want to redevelop the station as the terminal for the high-speed trains to Ankara and Konya. In the meantime, the station is still worth a visit, trains or no trains. Map of Istanbul showing Haydarpaşa & Sirkeci stations.
The palatial Haydarpasa Terminal is perched on the banks of the Bosphorus in the Kadıköy neighborhood. The site was chosen for the terminus of the Baghdad Railway and the Hejaz Railway in 1904,
Haydarpasa Train Station in considered one of ancient treasure of Turkey. Most amazingly is that the station is located right at the very tip of Asia continent along a beautiful coastline just over a mile away from Europe :-) . This station is one among the most photography in Istanbul.
Closed for renovations
