About Kordon

You can walk along the wide roads or have Turkish coffee or beer at a street café soaking up the mild smell of the sea. Travel to Turkey and experience the delightful blend of leisure and coastal charm, where every step unveils the allure of the surroundings.


Izmir Kordon is an iconic seafront promenade that runs from Konak Pier to Cumhuriyet Square, offering stunning views of the Aegean Sea. It was initially built as a protective sea wall during the Ottoman era. Later, Kordon evolved into a lively stretch of cafes, restaurants, and parks that draw locals and tourists alike. Its wide, tree-lined paths are perfect for leisurely walks, and the vibrant social atmosphere makes it a beloved gathering spot.


The promenade is a hub for dining, art, and history. The Atatürk Museum, Arkas Art Centre, and Zübeyde Hanım Museum Ship provide cultural enrichment, while sunset views and horse-drawn carriage tours add to its charm. Here, you can enjoy relaxing on the grass, cycling along the dedicated paths, or enjoying traditional Turkish coffee at a cafe. Kordon's blend of history, culture, and coastal beauty makes it a must-visit destination in Izmir.
