When I visited Istanbul 5 years ago, there was no metro systems on the Asian side of Istanbul except for circular tram. But, after my trip, two metro lines have opened.
In addition to them, 3 more metro lines and extension of the newly inaugurated metro line are planned on the Asian side of Istanbul.
