Eminönü, Commercial waterfront neighborhood at Golden Horn confluence, Istanbul, Turkey.
The district contains essential landmarks including the New Mosque, Spice Bazaar, and numerous stone buildings along the waterfront area of Istanbul.
The area functioned as a Maritime Customs center during Ottoman times, with its name deriving from emin meaning superintendent and önü meaning in front.
