So, what exactly you can do at The New Year eve in Istanbul? Istanbulers used to celebrate the New Year eve at home with family, or with friends in night clubs or restaurants. However, if you will go to the center, you will meet a crowd of drunk teenagers, especially in the Taksim square. So, this is defiantly not nice place to go.
One of the most beautiful event in the New year in Istanbul is a line of fireworks along the Bosphorus. Sparks of fireworks give mesmerizing reflection in the water. To be able to see it from the best places, try to book a table in a restaurant on the Galata bridge, from where you can have really incredible view on fireworks.
Also, you can choose one of the good night clubs to go and celebrate the New Year in Istanbul. Some of them have outdoor terrace with a dance floor on Bosphorus, like Reina club. And some of them are placed on roofs, from where you can enjoy incredible view, for example "Istanbul 360" in Taksim.
And one other variant to celebrate the New Year in Istanbul, it is to order a fish from a fish restaurant near you and celebrate at home with friends. But, I am sure, that you came to Istanbul not to stay at home. )
Whatever you choose, I wish you to have amazing trip and the best New Year eve in Istanbul!
