Church of St. Anthony of Padua

De zeer oude kerk, op de onafhankelijke straat, kan je de weg kijken als je hier rondhangt. De kerk ziet er prachtig uit. In deze bloeiende straat is het rustig en je kunt een schoon land vinden.

When we visited Independence Street, we didn't realize that there was an old church here. Although it was hidden in the surrounding buildings, the pale red church was still very attractive. It's not big inside. Someone is praying piously, and the trumpet keeps calling Sister Sister.

Toen ik langs het Tukheimerplein ging kijken, zag ik de kerk. Vanuit het uitzicht van het gebouw, dacht ik nooit aan een kerk. Inwendig rustig, kleurrijke stenen, brandende stenen, roosterde top, allerlei schilderijen... buiten of binnen de kerk, heel mooi!

Istanbul is a place where European and Asian civilizations blend and where Catholic and Islamic cultures compete with each other in history. So it is not difficult to understand that there is such a church in the city centre.

On this side of Independence Street, there is a large Catholic Church. Its architecture is distinctive and magnificent. There is a solemn beauty in it. Glass windows are even more beautiful. It's a good place. Come here and feel it.
