The town center of Büyükada is not very big. In fact, it consists of a handful cosy streets full of shops, restuarants and cafes.

I took this picture of the Sea of Marmara while enjoying a bicycle tour on Büyükada, the biggest of the Princes’ Islands.

Büyükada, the biggest of the Princes’ Islands, is completely car-free. In other words, the ideal place to have a nice walk or picnic. You can also make a tour of the island by bicycle or sitting in a horse-drawn carriage.
