Pendik is a district of Istanbul, Turkey on the Asian side between Kartal and Tuzla, on the Marmara Sea. Population is approx. 625,000.
There are records of settlements in Pendik going back to the Ancient Macedonians of 5,000 years ago, a Roman settlement in 753 BC, and many more conquests. In 1080, the town was taken over by the Seljuk Turks, and recaptured by the Byzantines in 1086 and so on. During the Byzantine era, the place was called Pantikion or Pentikion, and before that Pantikàpion and Pantikàpeum in Greek (as the town had five walls, or five gates, or both). Pendik was always a retreat from the city, and by the 20th century was peppered with holiday and weekend homes of Istanbul's wealthy.
Until the 1970s Pendik was a rural area, far from the city. Today Pendik is a crowded mix of working class housing (especially further towards the E5 motorway) with more expensive apartments with sea views along the coast. There is a busy shopping district (with a large street market on Saturdays), restaurants and movie theaters.

En cadillac
La route nous m?ne vers l'?ternel
L'?toile du soir qui nous appelle
J'ai toujours voulu cette libert?
Qui nous guide vers l'?ternit?
Comme un chevalier fou a lier
Comme un cheval sans cavalier
Le vent d?place ta belle crini?re
Encore plus belle plus belle qu'hier
J'ai toujours voulu que tu prennes place
Dans ma belle bagnole et que tu m'enlaces
Comme un chevalier fou a lier
Comme un cheval sans cavalier
Qui file sans s'arr?ter
Sur le grand boulevard en cadillac en cadillac
On fera l'amour en cadillac en cadillac
J'ai toujours voulu ?tre accompagn?
D'une belle gitane qui veut bien m'aimer
Comme un chevalier fou a lier
Comme un cheval sans cavalier
Qui file dans s'arr?ter
Sur le grand boulevard en cadillac en cadillac
On fera l'amour en cadillac en cadillac
Nous irons plus vite que la lumi?re
Nous irons visiter les sept mers
Tu seras simplement incendiaire
Et le feu br?lera les fronti?res
Sur le grand boulevard en cadillac
On fera l'amour en cadillac
Sur le grand boulevard en cadillac
On fera l'amour en cadillac
