<description><![CDATA[The Bosphorus or Bosporus (Greek: Βόσπορος), also known as the Istanbul Strait (Turkish: İstanbul Boğazı), is a strait that forms part of the boundary between the European part of Turkey (Thrace) and its Asian part (Anatolia). It is one of the Turkish Straits, along with the Dardanelles. The world's narrowest strait used for international navigation, it connects the Black Sea with the Sea of Marmara (which is connected by the Dardanelles to the Aegean Sea, and thereby to the Mediterranean Sea). It is approximately 30&#160;km (19&#160;mi) long, with a maximum width of 3,700&#160;m (12,139&#160;ft) at the northern entrance, and a minimum width of 700&#160;m (2,297&#160;ft) between Kandilli and Aşiyan; and 750&#160;m (2,461&#160;ft) between Anadoluhisarı and Rumelihisarı. The depth varies from 36 to 124&#160;m (118 to 407&#160;ft) in midstream. The shores of the strait are heavily populated as the city of Istanbul (with a metropolitan area in excess of 11 million inhabitants) straddles it.<br/><br/>1 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[The Golden Horn (Greek, Χρυσόν Κέρας: Chrysón Kéras; Turkish, Haliç or Altın Boynuz) is a historic inlet of the Bosphorus dividing the city of Istanbul and forming the superb natural harbor that has sheltered Greek, Roman, Byzantine, Ottoman and other ships for thousands of years. It is a scimitar-shaped estuary that joins the Bosphorus just at the point where that strait enters the Sea of Marmara, thus forming a peninsula the tip of which is "Old Istanbul" (ancient Byzantion and Constantinople). Its Greek and English names mean the same, but the significance of the designation "golden" is obscure. It has witnessed many tumultuous historical incidents and its dramatic vistas have been the subject of countless works of art.<br/><br/>1 Vote(s) ]]></description>
