Alsancak is the heart of Izmirs nightlife, its grid of streets behind the Kordon packed with bars, meyhanes, pubs and clubs that fill with a young, lively crowd after dark. From rooftop cocktail bars to traditional taverns serving raki and meze, the district offers a huge variety of venues within walking distance. The energetic, sociable atmosphere makes Alsancak the natural place to start and spend a night out in the city.
