This Istanbul transportation map is geared toward tourists. To avoid confusion, it doesn’t show every single line available in Istanbul. No, instead it only shows the most the important metro, tram, and funicular lines from a tourist’s point of view.
And to make finding your way in Istanbul even easier, I put the most common places of interest on the transportation map as well. This way you know exactly what line(s) to take to reach a certain sightseeing spot or venue.
