Kanyon Shopping Mall, Shopping center in Levent, Istanbul, Turkey
The Kanyon Shopping Mall spans across 37,500 square meters of retail space, incorporating 160 stores within its curved architectural structure across multiple levels.
Opening its doors in June 2006, this retail complex emerged from a collaboration between The Jerde Partnership from Los Angeles and Tabanlıoğlu Architects from Istanbul.
The mall functions as a gathering space where international retail brands merge with Turkish establishments, reflecting Istanbul's position between Eastern and Western commerce.
Located on Büyükdere Avenue, the center provides parking for 2,300 vehicles and contains nine cinema halls with a total capacity of 1,600 seats.
The building's design features continuous curves and varying levels that create an organic canyon-like formation throughout its 250,000 square meters of total space.

Istanbul offers photographers an uncommon range of subjects, combining architecture from multiple centuries with urban landscapes and waterways. This route includes Byzantine and Ottoman monuments such as Hagia Sophia and Topkapi Palace, along with the Galata Tower that has stood over the old city since the 14th century. The Bosphorus separates Europe and Asia and provides the setting for historic sites including Rumeli Fortress, Maiden's Tower, and waterfront palaces like Dolmabahce Palace and Kucuksu Palace. The route passes through districts with different character. Balat displays Ottoman wooden houses and narrow lanes, while Karakoy is known for its renovated industrial buildings. The Princes' Islands off the coast offer car-free streets and neoclassical mansions. Viewpoints like Camlica Hill and Pierre Loti Hill provide panoramic views of the city and the Sea of Marmara. Additional destinations include Suleymaniye Mosque, Emirgan Park with its tulip beds, and modern structures like Zorlu Center.
