Product Description
Sited on the Bosporus, Istanbul straddles the border between Europe and Asia. The largest and most culturally significant city in Turkey, Istanbul is also a place of great antiquity - a city has stood on its site for over 2,600 years. Signs of its past are everywhere, from Roman ruins to some of the most beautiful mosques in the world. These attractions bring in up to 20 million tourists a year. Istanbul has a population of between 10 and 14 million - more than double the population in 1984.
