Climbing Gym Review: Boulder Istanbul (Turkey )— Your Neighborhood Gym
<p>Make no mistakes, this is an “old school” gym and one of the first in Istanbul.</p>
<p>This place has a slightly gritty feel which adds to its well-worn charm. The holds are a little polished, rubber streaks mark the walls, and the paint has faded from years of use.</p>
<p>Admittedly, I have a soft spot for places like this, perhaps because I got my start at the small-town gym in New Paltz, NY (<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imprinting_(psychology)" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">imprinting</a> matters, I guess). I enjoy places and people that have an edge to them, that have been around the block, that have a story to tell.</p>
<p>No gym is complete without a community: The staff and regular climbers are welcoming, friendly, and helpful. They are happy to get to know you, share beta, and connect you with other climbers in the area if you’re looking to go outside.</p>
