Galata Bridge is one of the symbols of Istanbul. There is very busy traffic on the top, however, you can walk on foot. There are a lot of fish cafes and restaurants downstairs (not cheap, but you can afford to complete the impressions), the bridge is two-storied, Fishermen give color, you can watch the process and see the result! Noisy, crowded, bright, as, indeed, many things in Istanbul!

There are many cafes with quite tasty fish, the prices are the same as in other cafes in the area, but the view here is wonderful. After the meal, unlimited tea is brought for free, but immediately ask if there is a service and a discount

Galata Bridge is a separate attraction. Every evening we walked along it towards our hotel. Lots of fishermen, lots of fuckers on the lower tier. A unique atmosphere.

There are always people on the bridge, fishermen, fish, cats. It is interesting to watch the boats leaving for the Bosphorus.

You can walk along it to the other shore of the Golden Horn, you can fish from it and eat fish in the restaurant below it. No complaints about the bridge.

The view is wonderful. The restaurants are just great. Seafood and ordinary Turkish dishes. The food is delicious, there is also a hookah and places to watch the strait. A great place to sit and have a delicious meal.

The place is wonderful. Panorama 360⁰. The fishermen are imposing, the most cunning ones buy fish from the market and then resell it- like they caught it themselves.

The Galata Bridge, spanning the Bosphorus, is the only thing that makes it interesting for walking, after all, we do not often walk on bridges in warm countries, although of course it also serves purely utilitarian purposes, namely connects the shores of the rather large city of Istanbul, between the districts of which the Bosphorus and the Sea of Marmara stretch, rather a part the sea, but nevertheless...You can look at the pleasure boats with tourists passing under it and ferries with local residents and tourists crossing. On the lower tier of the bridge there are restaurants and cafes, quite decent, where you can try fish dishes. On the upper tier, it is quite possible to walk, go to the Galata Tower and look at the local fishermen, of whom there are many located on the bridge. I think the bridge is worth visiting by tourists, especially in the heat, it is quite pleasant to walk there, the breeze from the sea is pleasantly refreshing.

A good, strong bridge! There are a lot of passers-by and fishermen. There are interesting views from the bridge. There is a lot of traffic on both sides of the bay. For Istanbul, the place is a must-visit!

Nicely... The views are gorgeous, you can sit in a cafe right on the bridge. Fishermen catch fish from above, and they raise it right above those sitting in the cafe)) colorful, in general!

A walk along the Galata Bridge is a must for everyone who is in Istanbul for the first time. Fishermen standing in a crowd along the entire bridge, the majestic Bosphorus, and seagulls circling above the water create a special atmosphere. The restaurants under the bridge look nice, but the locals in chorus dissuade you from going there. Therefore, it is better to just take a walk

A beautiful and relatively young bridge (1994), which is located between the central parts of the city. There are a lot of fish restaurants downstairs, and there are always crowds of fishermen on top.

An interesting place. There are a lot of fishermen on the upper level, catching horse mackerel and mullet. On the lower level there are restaurants where you can have a good snack. The prices are very affordable. I recommend.

A fairly ordinary bridge, with a lot of fishermen on both sides; below, under the bridge, there are fish restaurants (but hardly any fish caught there). The pedestrian zone is quite large, and fishermen do not interfere with movement.

An atmospheric place. Fishermen with fishing rods, the wind. A walk under the bridge. But the fish in the fish restaurants under the bridge is very expensive, go further from the bridge to the fish market, and there are cheaper and tastier restaurants.

The bridge is on two levels. There are restaurants on the lower floor. You can enjoy the cuisine with a fish menu in the evening. To drink Ephesus, but not everywhere. After all, it is a Muslim country. There are many fishermen on the upper level. It is very interesting to outline the fishing process. And just walk at any time of the day, or take a tram.

A bridge is like a bridge. Restaurants are located below. Fishermen stand on both sides of the bridge. So just getting up and looking from the bridge won't work.
