Moda 

On the coast of the Sea of Marmara on the Asian side of İstanbul lies the Kadıköy district and its Moda neighbourhood, which has seen a huge boom in popularity in recent years leading to it being voted one of the 50 coolest neighbourhoods in the world. 

Hundreds of new bars, cafés, restaurants, and shops have opened here, making it a must-see for anyone who wants to get a feel for what the city is like these days. Kadıköy is often seen as the apple of the eye for İstanbulers, the atmosphere is more relaxed than the busier European side, which becomes clear on your first visit.
