Bağdat Avenue - Bağdat Caddesi Geocache

It is a main street in an upper-scale residential area. The one-way avenue with old plane trees is flanked with shopping malls, department stores, fashion garment stores, elegant shops offering world famous brands, restaurants of international and local cuisine, pubs and cafes, luxury car dealers and bank agencies. Bağdat Avenue can also be considered as a large open-air shopping mall. Most of the retail stores are open on all days of the week, including Sunday afternoon.

In summer time and on weekends, the sidewalks of the avenue are crowded with people window-shopping and youngsters lingering around. Traffic congestion is almost a standard situation on the three-lane Bağdat Avenue.

Bağdat Avenue hosts a cultural parade on the evening of Republic Day of Turkiye , which is celebrated every year on October 29.

Bağdat Avenue can be considered as the celebration center of the Asian side. Just as Taksim is where people gather for huge national events on the European side, people on the Asian side gather on Bağdat Avenue to celebrate events such as a sport victory or a national holiday.

Another grand celebration takes place on Bağdat Avenue whenever the home football team Fenerbahçe SK wins the championship title in the Turkish Super League. Fenerbahçe fans gather in the avenue and celebrate carnival on it, while singing, dancing, driving and sounding their car horns all night.

Thats why we decided to have a magnetic cache in Bagdat street. If you are interested in geocaching, you would have chance to see the famous one way street of Istanbul's asian side.

It's a micro cache and magnetic. You need to bring your own writing equipment. Please be extra careful about muggling. This  street is generally always crowded and turkish people are famous with their curiosity. 

İstanbullu olup da Bağdat caddesini bilmeyen yoktur zaten. Bizde bu kalabalık ünlü cadde üzerinde küçük bir kutu saklama denemesi yapalım istedik. Bakalım ne kadar süre kutu kaybolmadan duracak merakla bekliyoruz.
Sizlerden ricamız,  anadolu yakasında geocaching avına çıkarsanız bu kutuyu DİKKATLİ olarak yerinden alın ve işaretleyin. Çünkü bizim insanımız halen bu oyunun farkında değil ve ne yazık ki kutuları bulduklarında yerine bırakmıyorlar...

ilginiz için teşekkürler ;)
