Akmerkez
The Akmerkez shopping complex is another prominent shopping mall in Istanbul that has something for everyone. The mall houses high-end boutiques such as Armani, Gucci, and Louis Vuitton, as well as more cheap brands such as H&M and Zara. There are numerous clothes and accessory stores, as well as cosmetic shops, electronics stores, toy stores, and even a movie theater. The mall is massive, spanning over 180 thousand square meters and rising to 8 levels (four of which are filled with shops and four of which are garages).
The Etiler district mall first opened its doors in 1993. The mall sought to be different and unique from other malls across the world when it was built. Soon after its completion, the International Shopping Council (ICSC) named it the Best Shopping Center in Europe in 1995, and the World's Best Shopping Center in 1996. It was the only retail center to receive both the "ICSC International Design and Development" award and the 2010 "Interior Design 5 Star" award at the Europe&Africa Property Awards.
With its elegant environment and over 160 retailers and dining options, the Akmerkez provides a premium shopping experience. The Akmerkez has it all, whether you're seeking for a new outfit or just a bite to eat. The Akmerkez's huge food court is one of its features, with options ranging from Turkish cuisine to sushi to pizza. The mall also has a number of sit-down restaurants and cafes.
