Questions
1What is the YoliVibe İzmir guide?
It is a guide to 2,911 places across İzmir province, from Alsancak to Çeşme, Selçuk and Bergama. Every place is described by a 16-dimension vibe, so you can see before you go whether it is calm or lively, social or quiet, familiar or new.
2How are the places ordered?
Lists put first the places the guide knows best: photos, opening hours, a documented history, and what reviewers said. Lists about a vibe, such as quiet cafés or nightlife, are ordered by how strongly each place has that vibe compared with others of its kind. In the app, every list is ordered by your own vibe instead.
3Where does the information come from?
Places come from OpenStreetMap and are kept up to date by the YoliVibe community: reviews, vibe words and visits refine each place's vibe over time. Photos come from Wikimedia Commons and from YoliVibe users.
4What are the best things to do in İzmir?
The guide lists 577 things to do across 26 districts: ancient cities, museums, castles, beaches, parks and viewpoints. Start with a district or with Things to do, and let each place's vibe tell you which ones are for you.
