Taksim Square
Taksim Square ((トルコ語:Taksim Meydanı)), situated in the European part of Istanbul, Turkey, is a major tourist and leisure district famed for its restaurants, shops, and hotels. It is considered the heart of modern Istanbul, with the central station of the Istanbul Metro network. Taksim Square is also the location of the Monument of the Republic ((トルコ語:Cumhuriyet Anıtı)) which was crafted by Pietro Canonica and inaugurated in 1928. The monument commemorates the 5th anniversary of the foundation of the Republic of Turkey in 1923, following the Turkish War of Independence.
==History==
The word Taksim means "division" or "distribution". The Taksim square was originally the point where the main water lines from the north of Istanbul were collected and branched off to other parts of the city (hence the name.) This use for the area was established by Sultan Mahmud I. The square takes its name from the Ottoman era stone reservoir which is located in this area. Additionally, the word "Taksim" can refer to a special improvisational musical form in Turkish classical music that is guided by the Makam system. Another significant building that once stood on the square was the 19th century Taksim Artillery Barracks (''Taksim Topçu Kışlası'', which later became the Taksim Stadium), but it was demolished in 1940 during the construction works of the Taksim Park (''Taksim Gezi Parkı''.)〔(WowTurkey.com: Taksim Artillery Barracks (later Taksim Stadium) )〕
