Buca, Administrative district in İzmir, Turkey
The district spans 178 square kilometers in the southeastern section of İzmir, featuring elevated terrain that overlooks the Gulf of İzmir shores.
During the late 17th century, the French consulate moved to Buca following natural disasters in İzmir, leading to significant Levantine settlement.
The district contains multiple restored 19th-century mansions that showcase the architectural legacy of the former Levantine community of İzmir.
Transportation options include ESHOT buses, IZBAN commuter trains, and minibuses, with the district located 17 kilometers from İzmir Adnan Menderes Airport.
NATO established its Allied Land Command headquarters in Buca in 2012, making it an important center for international military operations.
