Maslak
Maslak is one of the main business districts of Sarıyer, Istanbul, Turkey, located on the European side of the city. It was formerly an exclave of the municipality of ÅžiÅŸli, though being far north and actually closer to the municipalities of Sarıyer and BeÅŸiktaÅŸ. Therefore, a legislation was approved by the Interior Commission of the Turkish Parliament on October 18, 2012, that shifted the jurisdiction of the Maslak district from ÅžiÅŸli to Sarıyer. Maslak is in direct competition with the nearby Levent business district for new skyscraper projects.

Educational Institutions Established In 1873
Education is a purposeful activity directed at achieving certain aims, such as transmitting knowledge or fostering skills and character traits.
