Istanbul... The main reason of
Istanbul's being a very popular city for which wars are made,
lives are lost is its geographical location... Let's review
this location first: In its south stretches Marmara Sea and
in its north is Black Sea. Its west part is in Europe and
east part is in Asia. The important waterline dividing
Istanbul into two is the Bosphorus... The only alternative
to reach the Aegean Sea and the Meditteranean Sea, therefore
to open sea is to use Istanbul and the the Bosphorus...
Istanbul is both the nearest Asian city
to Europe and the nearest European city to Asia. What adds
to Istanbul's significance is its being a port city and all
trade paths' passing through the city for thousands of years...
Another important feature of Istanbul is that it has a
highly sheltered structure. Especially the center which is
presently called as the "historical peninsula",
which was made capital city by both Byzantine and Ottoman
Empires and its being located on a hill surrounded by three
seas made it almost impossible to be conquered... Indeed,
Haliç had the quality of being an unparalleled harbour
sheltering navy fleets. Istanbul offers two great courses;
Klassis and Kemer both 18 hole and International
Championship Courses.
