This panorama was taken on the Uskudar coast of the Asia continent in Istanbul.

The Bosphorus (the strait) is one of the most important waterways in the world. It connects the Black sea to the Marmara sea.

The Bosphorus (Bogazici) Bridge connects the continents of Asia and Europe. It was built in 1973 and was the 4th longest suspension bridge in the world when its construction was finished.

The Bosphorus straight and the Bosphorus bridge exemplify a strategic crossroad.
