City’s Nisantasi shopping center, is located on the street of Tesvikiye that is the heart of retail shopping in the luxurious district of NISANTASI in Istanbul.
Nisantasi is the center of fashion in Turkey and the most prestigious national and international trademarks can be found in the district.
Nisantasi is one of the most historical districts of Istanbul and it has been a district where the most elite people lived throughout its history.

During the last period of 18th century, Abdülhamit the 1st chose Nisantasi for the wedding ceremonies of his sisters which lasted two weeks. The close location of the district to the palaces of Dolmabahçe and Yildiz, the effect of Pera culture, dwellers of many international perspectives and high purchasing power made Nisantasi a lively and cosmopolitan district.

Every time I visit Cities its empty. are they doing any business.
I do like the restaurant upstairs “It’s a Joke” which seems allways crowded.
True that it’s mostly empty and I believe most of the stores are hardly making the ends meet. There is a rumor that the mall is going to be shut down at the end of the year and converted into a hotel.
I like to shop in Citys, and there location in Nisantasi is perfect.
