This outlet is more special in design than the other outlets, and many stores and brands operate in this shopping center.

I have yet to travel to Venice, but when I talked to tourists who have, they said that the design of the shops, cafés, sidewalks, and even the boats in Venezia Mega Outlet is similar to Venice, and walking in this shopping center feels like walking in the streets of Venice.

Olivium Outlet Center

If I want to rate this shopping center in terms of low price, it gets the most points in the above list, but in terms of accessibility and facilities, it is a little weaker than other outlets.

If I didn’t have to collect information from this outlet, I would never go to it because it is too far from the city center and there are no other tourist attractions around it.

This shopping center has four floors and over 130 stores with various Turkish and international brands. The interesting thing is that about 25 thousand people visit it every day.

On Tuesdays, an interesting event happens in this outlet. On this day, most of the stores in this shopping center offer discounts on their products, and the prices are much lower than you think. Therefore, visiting this shopping center on Tuesdays is a very smart decision.

During my visit to this shopping center, I saw various men’s, women’s, and children’s clothing stores, cosmetic stores, bags and shoes, electrical appliances, etc. Due to the large number of clothing stores, the price of clothing in this mall is cheap, so wait to buy clothes from other stores before visiting this mall.

Some of the brands available in this shopping center are as follows:

ADIDAS BURGER KING ADİL IŞIK
ALTINİST BURSA KEBAP EVİ ALTINYILDIZ
ARMİNE CARIBOU CAFFEE ARMA LİFE

Going to this mall took time and effort, like going to Olivium Mall. First, I took the subway from Taksim Square to Yenikapi. At the Yenikapi station, I changed the line and took the M1 metro line to Atatürk Havalimani, getting off at the Yenibosna station.

There is a bus terminal in the Yenibosna area, where I boarded a StarCity bus. This bus took me directly to Istanbul StarCity Outlet Mall.

Now that you understand how to go to this shopping center, it is better to familiarize yourself with the stores and facilities of this shopping center.

Cinema, bowling and game area are among the most important entertainments of this shopping center for adults, which is located on the top floor. There are also many cafés and restaurants on the top floor.

After visiting this shopping center, I went to the top floor and played bowling. After I got tired, I went to Dünyası café, where the smell of coffee was everywhere.

There are also shops and playgrounds for children on each floor, which you can find by looking at the signboards.

The first floor of this shopping center is related to household appliances, and brands such as Linens, Touch, and Siemens are represented on this floor. A large store called Ebebek, which offers clothes and baby products, is also located on this floor.

Other famous brands, such as Mavi, LC Waikiki, Cotton, Defecto, Adidas, Nike, Benton, U.S. Polo, Colin’s, Under Armour, Gizia, Puma, Karaca, Madame Coco, and other famous international and Turkish brands, have branches throughout this mall.

I call this mall the one-size-fits-all mall. Due to the large sales of products and also the sending of products in one size by all kinds of companies, most of the clothes and shoes in this shopping center are one size, and this has caused a sharp reduction in prices in this shopping center. However, it is difficult to find your favorite clothes in this mall.

This mall has few entertainment places, only one movie theater, and a few restaurants that you can visit.

Free Wi-Fi, an outdoor area for rest, a safety deposit box room, a wheelchair, and a mother and child room are other shopping center facilities.

This large shopping center has 8 floors of clothing stores, cosmetics, bags, shoes, sports equipment, and electronic equipment of all domestic and international brands.

The famous brands of this shopping center are as follows:

Deichmann Colin’s Koton
 Berfini  Danielle Lopez  Pierre Cardin
 Derimod  Mavi Jeans  Reebok
 Watsons  Polaris  Stefanel
 Nine West  Kappa Tommy Hilfige
 Cacharel  Polo Garage Koton

Outlet 212 shopping center is located in Bağcılar, Istanbul, near Atatürk Airport. I took 89c and 89t buses from Taksim Square to this shopping center. And I reached the 212 outlet shopping center.
