Farewell to the Border Between Europe and Asia
The Bosphorus Tunnel revolutionizes mobility and connects two continents under the sea.
Istanbul, a historic city, lies halfway between Europe and Asia, spanning two continents. The majestic Bosphorus Strait divides these continents and has been a significant traffic problem for the city.
The strait created daily traffic jams and logistical stress, with the city depending on congested bridges. The Bosphorus tunnel provides a solution to this chaos, allowing travel directly under the sea to both sides of the city.
As
the only metropolis that truly spans two different continents, Istanbul's urban life will become more efficient with the tunnel.
