ISTANBUL IN PARTICULAR HAS A THRIVING AND VIGOROUS CONTEMPORARY CULTURAL SCENE, with the city's GALATA DISTRICT ALL HIP BARS, PAVEMENT CAFÉS AND TINY BOUTIQUES opened by some of Turkey's up-and-coming fashion names.

Elsewhere in ISTANBUL'S 'SOHO' AREA OF BEYOGLU, there is also a youthful contemporary arts and culture scene with such venues as the ISTANBUL MODERN MUSEUM, BEYOGLU'S NUMEROUS INDEPENDENT GALLERIES, VIBRANT STREET ART AND PERFORMERS livening up what is Turkey's cultural capital.
