Çıksalın Ayazması, Hasköy

Story

Still carrying the mood of Hasköy, the Çıksalın Sacred Spring (ayazma) is a living witness to Istanbul's past, built around water. In this historic neighborhood of Beyoğlu, the sacred spring, standing with its old stone structure squeezed into narrow streets, has long held an important place among those who quenched the thirst of travelers. Around this source, which has preserved its existence from the Ottoman period to the present, the traces of time's precious heritage can be discerned. That the name Çıksalın comes from water springing out of the rock shows how closely Hasköy is tied to its geography. Today, hidden in its quiet corners despite the influx of tourists, this monument is an unforgettable place full of stone and water, frequently visited by photography lovers during a walk through Hasköy.
