WHILE GETTING PREPARED FOR THE Xth INTERNATIONAL ÜSKÜDAR SYMPOSIUM
“GOOD TO HAVE ÜSKÜDAR”

It’s a privilage to be Üsküdarian, to live in Üsküdar, to live Üsküdar…
That’s why we call out “GOOD TO HAVE ÜSKÜDAR” with our friends as far as our voices reach and until the moment we get out of our breaths.
We are glad to be Üsküdarians and to serve Üsküdar.

Üsküdar is a city of history…
Üsküdar is a culture, an art and a city of civilization…
Üsküdar is a city of aesthetics, a city as beautiful as poetry and the city of poetry…
Üsküdar is a city of tolerance…
Üsküdar is a city of compassion , sharing and solidarity…
Üsküdar is the past, the present and the future…
