Salacak coast, which is a special and unique part of Istanbul's urban landscape, is an important transportation, service, and recreation center of the Anatolian side together with the focal points in its immediate vicinity.
The competition area is the area that includes the cliffs in the background along the coast, the green areas on the surfaces of these cliffs, and the overhead connection roads on the coastal part extending to Üsküdar Square, including the Harem Bus Station. In addition, pedestrian paths on the cliff parallel to the shore are also included in the competition area, except for the gardens of the residences on the embankment.
