Amplio and Haliç

Amplio, who make a point of offering “quality living space” as well as “real estate projects,” discovered the potential in Haliç at the right time, and started the Hilton Garden Inn Istanbul Golden Horn hotel project in 2010. The project, which is the first and biggest professional investment in Haliç, is a reflection of our belief that sources and riches of nature should be shared with nature.

With our projects we have made a point of considering Haliç as a whole, with its water, greenery, surroundings, and silhouette, treating it like tapestry, knowing it has a valuable and delicate geography.

7000 With a history that dates back 7000 years, Haliç is, without question, one of Istanbul’s most glorified geographies. Haliç is on its way to becoming “the cultural heart of Istanbul” from the days it used to be “The Golden Horn” of Istanbul because of its wealth and fruitfulness.

The past, present and future of

HALİÇ

Once Upon a Time Haliç

With a history that dates back 7000 years, Haliç is, without question, one of Istanbul’s most glorified geographies. Haliç is on its way to becoming “the cultural heart of Istanbul” from the days it used to be “TheGolden Horn” of Istanbulbecause of its wealth and fruitfulness.

  • Its most important characteristic in terms of Istanbul`s spatial development during the 18th century was the organic integration of Boğaziçi and Haliç. During the Ottoman Era, Haliç was famous for having beautiful land along the bright green pastures along the shore, waters that were home to all sorts of fish, rare seafood, and richness.
  • It draws the attention of foreign travelers and artists that visit Istanbul with its natural beauties. In fact, a century ago, Pierre Loti, a famous writer and sailor, could not keep away from the café on the hillsides of Eyüp; hence, why today that same café is called Pierre Loti.

The historic identity of Haliç and its surroundings has allowed the area to grow with various religious and cultural structures. During this time, merchant ships from four corners of the world would sail into the blue waters of Haliç and create a unique view. However, Haliç became polluted very fast after becoming an industrial site in 1954. The industrial side of Haliç brought with it unplanned structuring. As a result, Haliç, once a culture valley and home to numerous civilizations, became a swamp in which even rowing boats did not have a chance of sailing.

The first step of the Haliç Environmental Project, in place since 1995, was to rid Haliç of mud. The life line support project from Boğaz to Haliç that followed revived the water at Haliç, and became a habitat for underwater creatures once again.

Today, Haliç is home to around 50 types of fish. The foot stones of a culture valley have been planted by converting industrial sites around Haliç into culture centers and museums. The historical and cultural nature of surroundings of Haliç, one of Istanbul`s oldest residential areas, sets forth the tourism potential in the area, and sits in the center of cultural places and activities.

Haliç Today...

Today Haliç is one of Istanbul`s most valuable regions thanks to universities, historical and cultural landmarks such as Bilgi University, Kadir Has University, İstanbul Ticaret University, Fatih Sultan Mehmet University, Haliç Culture and Congress Center, Feshane, Miniatürk Open Air Museum, Eyüp Culture Center, National Archive, SantralIstanbul, Bulgar Church, Kızan Has Museum, Bahariye Mevlevihanesi, Rahmi Koç Museum, Aynalıkavak Kasrı, and Eyüp Sultan Mosque.

Haliç is also the prime location for important event; it is host to the Dragon festival and boat races, Redbull Extreme Sailing Team, Haliç Race Marathon, etc. Haliç also draws attention with its closeness to business centers such as Maslak, Levent, Taksim, Eminönü, and Beşiktaş. Access to the Metrobus, E5, tunnel, ferries, and sea taxis has improved.

Keeping this in mind, the residential areas in Haliç must be as beautiful and as important as Haliç. Haliç must be handled with an integral approach to ensure integration between projects.

Nowadays,

Haliç is positioned as “Haliç Culture Art Center,”

and carries grave importance in terms of history, culture, and trade.
