BuyukadaForEver

This channel is dedicated to Buyukada, an island that is part of the Princes' Islands.

The Princes' Islands or more commonly Adalar [Islands] as they are officially named, are a chain of nine islands off the coast of Istanbul, Turkey, in the Sea of Marmara. 

They are incredibly peaceful and a short ferry ride from Istanbul. 

During the Byzantine period, prince and other royalty were exiled on the islands, and later members of the Ottoman sultans family were exiled there too, lending the islands their present name.

Büyükada (Big Island) is the largest of the nine islands. As on the other islands, motorized vehicles -- except service vehicles -- are forbidden, so visitors explore the island by foot, bicycle, and in horse-drawn carriages.
