- It straddles two continents, Europe and Asia;
- Its history encompasses three major civilizations of the ancient world: Roman, Greek, and Byzantine, plus the johnny-come-lately Ottoman Empire. And, all that history is visible on almost every street corner with modern buildings built on top of ancient ruins and remnants of ancient walls lining today’s streets;
- The Bosphorus, a waterway famed in the ancient world, provides the backdrop to all that makes Istanbul Istanbul – exotic, Eastern and yet Western, a magical skyline. We have posted several tours and a variety of activities for exploring Istanbul. Several more are available.
