Transportation:

 

         To go there with a guide, Prof. Safak Ural recommends that we meet at 8.00am on August 8 and 9 at the main entrance of Istanbul University (Beyazet Mosque or Veniceriler Street) and go together to Kultur University.

           One can take the metro (underground) to the station of Ataköy-Sirinevler, from which Kultur University is a 5 minutes walk. 

          Or one can take bus number #37B or bus #61B and get off at Sirinevler or Yenibosna, just before the airport. Kultur University is between these two stops.    

    A “smart ticket” (“akbil”), good for tram, buses, and ferryies, is much more economical.
