The ancient Jewish neighborhood Balat, which lies along the Byzantine sea walls by Haliç (the Golden Horn), is now one of the last fortresses that Romans took shelter in. The gentrification process that has been continuing for 15 years is in its third stage.
Taxa Cihûyan ya berê Balat li peravê Haliçê, li ber deryaya Bîzansê dirêj dibe û diçe. Kesên Roman herî dawî xwe sipartine wir. Li wê deverê ev 15 sal in hewldana modernkirinê pêk tê û ev pêvajo di asta sêyemde dewam dike.
