An elevator and terrace built in 1907 in Karataş to overcome a 58-meter height difference between two streets.

Its story

The elevator was commissioned in 1907 by the Jewish businessman Nesim Levi Bayraklıoğlu. A brick tower was built to ease the climb between Mithatpaşa Caddesi in Karataş and Halil Rıfat Paşa Caddesi above. From the upper terrace there is a view of the gulf and Karataş. Dario Moreno Sokağı right next to it and the fabric of Karataş's Jewish quarter can also be added to the walk.
