The association examined the location-based emotions of users through an application named “CheckFeel,” mapping what its users felt about certain locations in Istanbul. Emotions were shared in nearly 150,000 places on the application that reached nearly 10,000 users.
Eyüp Sultan Mosque, which is seen as one of the most important sacred stops in Istanbul and where those who want to discover the spiritual side of the city, stands out as the most peaceful place in Istanbul.
Metrobuses, which are used by about 800,000 people a day and provide fast travel from one end of Istanbul to the other, being thought to be the most overwhelming place in Istanbul does not come as a surprise.
The historical Grand Bazaar, which is the oldest and largest shopping center in the world with its 3,600 shops, fascinates its visitors with its 560 years of history and its buzzy atmosphere.
The İstiklal Avenue, at the heart of the city, is seen as the most cheerful place. The commercial and socially active history of the street has a great share in this reputation.
A formative part of Istanbul and its Bosphorus Strait is undoubtedly the Maiden’s Tower. The tower, which was built on a tiny island in the middle of the strait, stands out as the most romantic place, which has become a venue and backdrop for many love myths.
According to the application, the most spacious place of Istanbul is Çamlıca Hill and the most loyal one is the Blue Mosque.
Data show that the saddest place is the Karacaahmet Cemetery...
And the places where the most complex feelings are experienced are stadiums.
