Yıldız (Turkish pronunciation: [jɯɫˈdɯz], literally 'star') is a neighbourhood in the municipality and district of Beşiktaş, Istanbul Province, Turkey.

The biggest part of the palace gardens, some old pavilions and the famous porcelain workshops are open to the public in what is now Yıldız Park.

In addition to these, the türbe of Yahya Efendi, a 16th-century Islamic complex, attracts around a million local visitors every year.

[4] Also, the türbe of Sheikh Zafir Efendi, which was designed by the architect Raimondo D'Aronco and built in 1886, is one of the good examples of Art Nouveau style in Istanbul.

[5] Just behind the türbe stands the Ertuğrul Tekke Mosque, which was built in 1887 and commissioned by the Ottoman sultan Abdul Hamid II.
