Its story
The hill bears the name of the French writer Pierre Loti, who lived in İstanbul in the late 19th century, because of the coffeehouse he frequently visited. Reached by the path rising through the historic cemetery from the Eyüp Sultan Mosque or by cable car, the hill overlooks the Golden Horn, the Historic Peninsula and the slopes of Beyoğlu. The coffeehouse and the tea gardens around it get crowded, especially at sunset. The old gravestones in the cemetery also attract attention during the walk.
