Transcription
Zones
The World Heritage site covers four zones, illustrating the major phases of the city's history using its most prestigious monuments:
- the Archaeological Park, which in 1953 and 1956 was defined at the tip of the peninsula;
- the Süleymaniye quarter, protected in 1980 and 1981;
- the Zeyrek quarter, protected in 1979;
- the zone of the ramparts, protected in 1981.
Pollution
Air pollution in Turkey, such as fine dust from traffic, is a serious problem in Istanbul.[1][2] Although the historic peninsula was partially pedestrianised in the early 21st century,[3] a 2015 study found that this is the part of the city which would benefit most from a low emission zone.[4] However, as of 2022, it was still said to be "car-oriented".[5]
