The Bosphorus Bridge is a very powerful structure that is breathtaking from both the roadway and the water or shore. The connection between the two continents and parts of Turkey and Istanbul is one thing that you should not miss on your trip to Istanbul.

Running

A beautiful turning point for a run along the palaces and parks of the Bosphorus. There aren't many cities that straddle two continents. In Istanbul, worlds collide.
