İstinye is a neighbourhood in the municipality and district of Sarıyer, Istanbul Province, Turkey.[1] Its population was 15,721 in 2022.[2] It is on the European side of the city between the neighbourhoods of Emirgan and Yeniköy, on the northwestern shore of the Bosporus strait.

In classical antiquity it was the site of a town called Lasthenes,[3] which was later renamed Leosthenion (Greek: Λεωσθένιον), and corrupted to Sosthenion (Greek: Σωσθένιον) during the Middle Ages.[4] The village was the site of the Michaelion, a church and monastery dedicated to St. Michael in Byzantine times.[5]

Since 1995 the headquarters of the Istanbul Stock Exchange has been in İstinye.[6]
