• Can you believe that Europe and Asia are just 700 meters apart in Istanbul?!

    Yes — less than one kilometer separates two continents at one of the most fascinating geographical points on Earth.

    This is the Bosphorus Strait, which divides Istanbul between its European and Asian sides, making the city one of the few major cities in the world located on two continents.

    Amazing Bosphorus Facts:
    • Length: About 31 km
    • Narrowest point: About 700 m
    • Widest point: Up to 3.7 km
    • Depth: Over 100 m in some areas
    • North: Black Sea
    • South: Sea of Marmara

    But the Bosphorus is far more than a geographical boundary. It is a vital international waterway connecting the Black Sea with the Sea of Marmara, and providing a maritime route toward the Aegean and Mediterranean seas.

    This extraordinary location gives Istanbul something very few cities can claim:

    One city. Two continents. One legendary strait.

    Here’s the question:

    If you were standing on one side of the Bosphorus looking across at the other…

    Would you feel like you were looking at another continent or simply another part of the same city?

    Europe or Asia?
    Which side would you choose to explore first — and why?

  • A powerful new railway route is being explored linking Saudi Arabia to Türkiye through Jordan and Syria.

    Why it matters:
    • Faster travel across the region
    • Stronger trade connections
    • A major boost to regional cooperation

    If approved, this could become one of the Middle East’s most important transport corridors.

  • Türkiye’de kargo pazarının lideri kim?
    2025 itibarıyla kargo sektöründe pazar payı dağılımı belirgin şekilde değişti.
    Köklü yerli firmaların ağırlıkta olduğu yapı, son yıllarda farklı bir dengeye evrildi.

    Bilgi Teknolojileri ve İletişim Kurumu (BTK) verilerine göre 2025 kargo pazarı payları:

    • Trendyol Ekspress – %29,87
    • Aras Kargo – %12,39
    • Yurtiçi Kargo – %11,92
    • MNG Kargo – %9,91
    • D Fast – %8,50
    • PTT Kargo – %7,23
    • Port Kargo – %6,94
    • Kolay Gelsin – %4,52
    • Diğer – %8,72

    Bu tablo sonrası sektör içinde şu başlık öne çıkıyor:
    Yerli kargo şirketleri neye itiraz ediyor?

    E-ticaret platformları, operasyonlarında ağırlıklı olarak
    dağıtım başına çalışan kuryelerle ilerleyen bir model kullanıyor.
    Geleneksel kargo şirketleri ise aynı esnekliği sınırlı ölçekte uygulayabiliyor.
    KARİD (Kargo İşletmecileri Derneği) yetkililerine göre,
    pandemi döneminde getirilen geçici esnekliklerin kalıcı hale gelmesi, rekabet dengesini bozdu.
    Bu nedenle sektörde, taraflar arasında dengeleyici bir regülasyon ihtiyacı dile getiriliyor.

    Endüstrilerin dönüşümünü..
