Ilica Taksi 2, Çeşme

Ilica Taksi (2) panel style

Our correspondent writes: "Quite possibly the finest taxi kiosk in the Izmir district, this example sports an attractive location, exceptional and numerous amenities and eschews the fiberglass prefabrication of its neighbourhood brethren.

"Situated less than 100 metres from the turquoise beaches of Ilica, its Aegean waters warmed by underwater thermal springs, this kiosk is also positioned in a commercially advantageous location among several hotels catering to the more well-heeled Turkish holidaymaker. It is no stretch to imagine that the taxi drivers working this beat see their fair share of TL100+ rides back and forth to the airport in Izmir.

"Buffeting the comfort of the drivers are the plentiful amenities of this kiosk. This is no mere fiberglass shell. This structure has been artfully designed with 360-degree windows, satellite TV, 20-litre water dispenser, dining and/or gaming table with cushioned, bench seating for those LigTV football match days, as well as an awning and over-hanging and planter vegetation to invoke a garden-like serenity on the non-match days.

"This kiosk has it all and one would be hard pressed to find a better one."
