About Renting a Car at Istanbul Sahrayicedit
Sahrayicedit is a quiet residential district on the Asian side of Istanbul, located in the Kadıköy municipality approximately 15 km from Üsküdar and 20 km from Taksim via the Bosphorus Bridge. With 2 rental companies, there's a limited but available selection for those wanting to explore the Anatolian side of the megacity. The district is close to Bağdat Caddesi, Istanbul's elegant shopping street that runs along the Marmara coast.
Fenerbahçe Park and Kalamış port are reached in 10 minutes' drive, and the E5 motorway is easily accessible for further trips south. Parking along Bağdat Caddesi can be tricky – choose a small or medium-sized rental car. Avoid driving toward Kadıköy center on Saturday afternoons when traffic is heavy.
Book in good time as only 2 rental companies operate in the area. How close is Sahrayicedit to Sabiha Gökçen airport? Approximately 25 km east via the E5, normally 30–45 minutes by car.
Can I take the rental car to the European side? Yes, via the Bosphorus Bridge or the FSM Bridge – allow 30–50 minutes to Taksim depending on traffic. Is there free parking in Sahrayicedit?
Yes, in the side streets around the residential areas there's often free parking, unlike along Bağdat Caddesi.
