Sirkeci sits on the northern shore of the Historic Peninsula, the connecting node between Eminönü and Sultanahmet. The neighbourhood's emblem is Sirkeci Station: opened in 1890 as the European terminus of the legendary Orient Express, its Jasmund-designed Orientalist façade now also houses a small Railway Museum.

The narrow lanes behind the station belong to Hocapaşa, where grilled lamb and dürüm have perfumed the air for generations and some of the city's longest-running lokantas still serve. The slopes leading down toward the water are dense with hotels and stay busy year-round; with a tram stop, ferry pier and a Marmaray rail station all in walking distance, Sirkeci is one of the most practical starting points for exploring the old city on foot.
