Maltepe, Istanbul
Maltepe is a district in Istanbul, Turkey, on the northern shore of the Sea of Marmara. It touches Kadıköy district to the west, Kartal to the east and Ataşehir to the northwest. The mayor of Maltepe is Ali Kılıç ( CHP). History In Byzantine times, the area was known as Bryas ( el, Βρύας). In ca. 837, the emperor Theophilos (r. 829–842) erected here a palace in Arab style, inspired by the palaces of the Abbasids in Baghdad, described to him by his ambassador to the Abbasid court, John Grammatikos. A ruin in nearby Küçükyalı has been identified as it. This coast has been a retreat from the city since Byzantine and Ottoman times, and right up until the 1970s was a rural area peppered with summer homes for wealthy Istanbul residents.

Neighbourhoods Of Istanbul
This is a list of neighbourhoods ( Turkish: ''mahalle'') of Istanbul, Turkey, classified by the districts of Istanbul.
