History and description

The Recep Tayyip Erdo?an Stadium was built in 2005 on the site of a local athletics ground. The stadium originally consisted of a single main stand with a curve around the corner to the back behind the goal. It was further expanded in 2010 with separate stands on the side and end previously left open, while at the same time the athletics track was removed.

In 2014-15, Besiktas played their home fixtures at the Recep Tayyip Erdogan Stadium while their new Vodafona Arena was under construction.

Taksim Square is about a 15-minute walk away from the Sultanahmet area, while it takes about half an hour to walk from the area around the Sultanahmet Palace.

The nearest metro station is Sishane, which is located a 10-minute walk away. Sishane is on the green line M2, which runs to destinations in the north and south, including Taksim Square with connections to other parts of the city.
