Kasımpaşa gets a bad rap for a central historical district with so much to offer, making it the lowest-value square on the Istanbul Monopoly Board. The decline of the Ottoman Empire and its navy left the district without a purpose, ushering in a century of neglect. But Kasımpaşa increasingly looks like a vibrant district on the rise complete with landmark buildings like the Ottoman Baroque Camondo Palace, and the Recep Tayyıp Erdoğan Stadium, a gift to the neighborhood from one of its former residents: ex-footballer President Recep Tayyıp Erdoğan. Discover how football, politics, and urban revitalization have shaped Kasımpaşa's narrative, making it a must-visit destination for anyone with a passing interest in Ottoman history. Watch, share your thoughts, and let us guide you through the heart of Kasımpaşa's past and present.
