The Museum of Innocence
The Museum of Innocence is both the
title of a novel by Orhan Pamuk and the name of a museum he has established.
From the very beginnings of the project, since the 1990s, Pamuk has conceived
of novel and museum together. The novel, which is about love, is set between
1974 and the early 2000s, and describes life in Istanbul between 1950 and 2000
through memories and flashbacks centered around two families – one wealthy, the
other lower middle class. The museum presents what the novel’s characters used,
wore, heard, saw, collected and dreamed of, all meticulously arranged in boxes
and display cabinets. The novel was published in 2008; the museum opened in
spring 2012.

Istanbul’s oldest Neighborhoods “ÇUKURCUMA”

ÇUKURCUMA
One of Istanbul’s oldest neighborhoods,Çukurcuma, as its name, ’’çukur’’, indicates, nestles in a hollow between two steep slopes. If you check a map, you’ll spot it where İstiklal Street intersects the districts of Taksim and Cihangir.
NAMED BY MEHMED THE CONQUEROR
Appealing to everyone interested in old things with its antique shops and art galleries, Çukurcuma takes its name from an incident that occurred in the time of Mehmed the Conqueror. Coming to the area to pray on the eye of the conquest, he declared, ’’Let us perform a Friday (Cuma) prayer in this hollow,’’ since there was no mosque or masjid here at the time. His words were subsequently corrupted to ‘’Çukurcuma’’, and the appellation stuck.
NEIGHBORHOOD MUSEUM
Yet another of the deservedly famous buildings in this quarter, where you can buy everything old from vintage clothes to antique toys, is the Museum of Innocence, opened in 2012 by writer Orhan Pamuk. This museum, which garnered the European Museum Forum’s ‘’2014 European Musaum of the Year’’ award, is an İstanbul museum that chronicles in a display of artifacts of everday life a love that began in the 1950’s and lasted into the 2000’s.
LA BOHEME
Synonymous with concepts like ‘’original’’ and ‘’authentic’’, this quarter was the haunt of Armenian and Rumelian rag-and-bone men until 25-30 years ago. When Turks began opening shops as well, it took on a certain cachet and was quickly transformed into a gentrified antiques district. Close to a hundred shops have made it a virtual trademark today. Shops selling old doors, old shoes and bags, ceramic knickknacks, silverand copper and semi-precious gemstone jewelry occupy its second-class historical monument buildings from the 19th and early 20th centuries, and streetsof row houses give it a quintessential Bohemian feel. You’ll think you’re in Paris here, where you can take a break in a typical cafe and finally finish that book you’ve been carrying around in your bag.
