HISTORY
With the Ottoman State taking Istanbul in 1453, there were significant developments in the city. Fatih Sultan Mehmet enacted laws protecting their rights by not persecuting and repressing Istanbul and its surrounding Greek Ahalis, thinking of living together in harmony with them. He also ordered the sites damaged during the war to be re-executed. Even if this small fishing village at the mouth of the Gofla stream was not damaged by the war, it was stated that money was spent on the correction of the manuscript, and the road connecting to the Small Drawer was arranged because it was a continuously used road.
Because the most valid way for armies is known to be the back of half-burga caves, the reason is that there are bridges around here. History has not mentioned Small Drawer and Oversize in many structures for some reason. After the Ottomans defeated Byzantium, Turks began to settle around Istanbul. The Turks did not want to settle in the mouth of the Gofla creek while settling in the Big and Small drawer. Because the Turks used to rely on livelihoods, agriculture and animal husbandry, they did not want to sit in this fishing village. The food and clothing needs of the palace and its surroundings were mostly met from the outside. Especially in recent years, the goods brought by ships were emptied into the Small Drawer and Wafer Creek. In the fishing village of the Greeks, they had a warehouse for the goods brought. The watchdog of the warehouse was also made by a military commander.
The people of this fishing village were not very interested in the establishment of the Greek Kingdom, nor did they even engage in any biased stance in the Turkish-Rumian war of 1877-1878. In 1890 we see the Egyptian kaval Ali acquiring property on the upper part of the Greek bridge. He called it Aminagos. However, this place remains as it is without much development. A small road running through the middle of this farm is increasingly widened and connected to the Lesser Bridge. The importance of this expanding road has increased and turned into a road connecting to Europe. In the post-Republic era, in 1924 the village of Ambarli was replaced by the Turks as 40-50 households. Due to the placement of military warehouses in the places vacated from the Greeks, this place was called Ambarli. With the settlement of the Turks, agriculture gained more importance.
The sulh agreement in Lausanne, which resulted in a great victory on 30 August 1922, was replaced by the Greeks as 40-50 households in the village of Ambarli in 1924, in the period after the adoption of all the world nations. Avcilar/Photos/Laughing STEEL In 8, a new group of 35-digit immigrants acquired the Amindos Farm, located in the north of Ambarli, 12,000 acres (now Avcilar), and settled the farm buildings.1. After the departure of Rum Ahalisi in 1924, Turks were brought from around Thessaloniki in Greece. The Turks entered the Greek houses. And they turned the church, which was the place of worship of the Greeks, into a mosque in 1928. The Turks who came here started fishing.
The importance of the village of Ambarli has increased due to its proximity to Istanbul. Because as the development progress of the country was increasing, energy and oil facilities were being established due to the proximity to the cities. Thus, Istanbul became an important energy production center.After 1938, military units settled in Mustafa Kemal Pasha Neighborhood and stayed here for many years. In those days, there was an airport here. In the history of Ambarli, the important places begin to disappear.The mosque, which was returned from the church, was destroyed in 1977 by a new mosque. Even some remains from the time of Ayazma and Byzantium have disappeared. Even some houses from the Greeks were made of concrete piles on their destroyed places. However, in the 1950’s when there was a quiet rest, a hotel called Bal Mahmut was built. The sea of this place is contaminated with the filth of the ships that came here for a visit, as well as their shores are plundered.
Turks were placed in the center of the Avcilar, brought from Bulgaria.This soon became a major settlement center. Later on, the small farms here became villages and the settlement areas increased and it was called Avcilar. In the autumn of hunting animals, especially the herds of quails from the north attracted a large number of Avcilar.After 1970, the Avcilar had a very hot period. With the ambitious event that started in Istanbul, people started to flock to this region. There has been a very rapid population growth in this region. Soon the villagers sold their fields by parceling them by real estate agents.
Housing has started to be built on the sold plots, new neighborhoods have been created and the Avcilar have spread over a very wide area. Industry in Avcilar has also grown and developed rapidly. Many industrial organizations were formed. To the west of the warehouse there are fuel filling plants, a thermal power generating plant. There are industrial facilities on the right and left of the Firuzkoy road. The presence of the Avcilar’ district on the E-5 Land road brings great movement to the district.To the right of London Asphalt, Istanbul University, which spreads over a large area, has many importance. There are 9 neighborhoods in Avcilar County. Apart from the E-5 TEM motorway and side roads, there are 29 streets and 746 streets.;
POPULATION STATUS

The population of our rapidly developing district is also increasing rapidly and the construction sector remains one of the strongest sectors of the region.In 1934, the population of 340 people increased to 1940 people in 1222. In 1945. During the World War, the population was 1730. It is thought that there are military units placed in the region as the reason for the increase in the population in 1945. After the war, the population suddenly fell to 1,130 people. Although the population growth in the Avcilar’ County remained below the general values until 1950, this increase gained rapid momentum after 1950.Making fuel filling facilities in 1959: in 1964, the establishment of the TEK Ambarli Thermal Power Plant was the first factors affecting this population growth. By the present day, for example, in 1990, the population of the region was 126,282 people; in the last 1997 census, the region became a settlement of 214,383 people. According to the census conducted in 2000, our district has 235,113 people, as of 13/03/2008, 323,596 people and as of 01/01/2009, the population of our district is 333,944 individualsAgoldirotovs/handirChanchers
