Dijital İstanbul is a Smart City project of the Istanbul Governorship, designed to help residents and visitors discover the city’s registered cultural heritage. Its guiding mission is to encourage people to discover, protect, and share Istanbul’s history through accessible digital information. The platform offers multilingual audio guides and maps, helping users explore cultural assets and understand their place in the city’s heritage.

Visitors can browse cultural sites by category, including churches, mosques, synagogues, tombs, madrasas, lodges, schools, primary schools, hazires, and other structures. The site also provides a map and supports location-based exploration, allowing users to find nearby heritage sites and create walking routes to registered cultural property from their current location. These features make Dijital İstanbul a practical guide for planning independent visits and learning about historic places across Istanbul.

The project was realized with contributions from Ziraat Katılım. Through its digital tools and curated cultural-asset listings, Dijital İstanbul connects exploration with heritage awareness and invites users to engage with the city’s history.
