The sights of Heybeliada: From Mining Town to Island Paradise

The sights of Heybeliada make it one of the best day trips in Istanbul. Things to do on Heybeliada include beaches, forests, monasteries, tombs of former Orthodox Patriarchs, museums, and good restaurants, all of which can be managed as a day trip from Istanbul, without the extra travel and crowds on Büyükada. Heybeliada's name comes from ‘heybe’, meaning ‘saddle bag’ in Turkish, and is reference to the island’s distinctive two hills and valley between them.
