"Named "henna'd" (kinali) after its red soil, Kinali is smallest of the larger islands off Istanbul, measuring about 1.3 square km (130 hectares, 321 acres).
It's easy to identify: it's the one with all the antenna towers on it.
Ottoman Greeks called it Proti, and they and their Armenian neighbors built Ottoman-Victorian summer villas on the island, many of which survive along with several churches."
