		Midway along Istiklal one reaches the renowned Galatasaray Lycee, the Eton of Turkey, which was founded in the 15th century.Here in front of the tall ornate school gates the street widens into Galatasaray Square, and the tram tracks part so that the trams may pass one another.
		Toward the end of Istiklal As we come towards the end of Istiklal, Cafe Markiz, once frequented by the great artists, the rich and famous, is on the right, lies forlorn and closed.
		Istiklal street which was closed to vehicle traffic in the early 90's, starts with the old water distribution ("Taksim") building, now serving as a Tourism Information Office.

		Located in the historic Beyoğlu district, it is an elegant pedestrian street, approximately three kilometers long, which houses exquisite boutiques, music stores, bookstores, art galleries, cinemas, theaters, libraries, cafés, pubs, night clubs with live music, historical patisseries, chocolateries and restaurants.
		During the Ottoman period, the avenue was called Cadde-i Kebir (Grand Avenue) and was a popular spot for Ottoman intellectuals, also becoming a center for European foreigners and the local Italian and French Levantines who referred to it as Grande Rue de Péra.
		With the declaration of the Republic on October 29, 1923, the avenue's name was changed to İstiklal (Independence) for commemorating the triumph at the Turkish War of Independence.

	Nostalgic Istiklal Caddesi Tram, Istanbul, Turkey
		In 19th-century Pera (Beyoglu), a traditional tram trundled along the Grande Rue de Pera (Istiklal Caddesi) for 1.64 km (1 mile) connecting Taksim Square with Galatasaray and Tünel Square.
		After Istiklal Caddesi became a pedestrian zone, the tram was restored and revived in 1990.
		The ride is relatively slow (for one thing, the conductor must constantly ring his bell to clear the way of pedestrians), but pleasant—a good quick tour of Istiklal Caddesi.

		As you walk this grand street, tilt your head and try to envision the building facades in full splendor as they were in the nineteenth century heyday of Pera, the bygone era of fine ladies and elegant gentleman.
		Veering back in the direction of Istiklal Caddesi, do look out for an easily missable little passage on the left, that is the Avrupa Bazaar, which backs onto the Fish market again.
		There are still a few remaining sights of interest up on the last section of Istiklal Caddesi, so from Tunel Square walk around to the left and re-enter the main street.

		From what I saw those places were in lovely old buildings, but dreary and basic on the inside.
