This evocative photograph captures the charm and elegance of The Landing Stage and Casino at Buyukada, also known as Prinkipo, in Istanbul, Turkey, during the 1920s. The image, dated 1923, shows the Maxims Restaurant and Bar prominently situated on the quayside, with its ornate facade reflecting in the calm waters of the Marmara Sea. The casino, with its distinctive red-tiled roof, can be seen in the background, surrounded by lush greenery. The Landing Stage was a popular destination for both locals and tourists, offering a range of amenities including dining, gambling, and boat rentals. The Maxims Restaurant and Bar, with its art deco decor and Mediterranean cuisine, was renowned for its sophistication and glamour. The casino, with its promise of excitement and adventure, added to the allure of the place. The photograph transports us back in time to an era of opulence and leisure, when the vibrant city of Istanbul, then known as Constantinople, was a melting pot of cultures and influences. The serene setting of Buyukada, with its beautiful beaches and historic monasteries, provided the perfect backdrop for a day of relaxation and indulgence. The Landing Stage and Casino at Buyukada, with its timeless charm and rich history, remains a popular attraction for visitors to Istanbul today. This photograph serves as a reminder of the city's rich past and its enduring appeal as a destination for travelers from around the world.
