  • IN 1890, A JAPANESE FISHING VILLAGE SAVED 69 TURKISH SAILORS. 95 YEARS LATER, TURKEY PAID IT BACK

    September 1890. An Ottoman warship called the Ertugrul was heading home from Japan when a typhoon threw it onto the rocks near Kushimoto, at the southern tip of Japan's main island.

    More than 500 sailors died.

    The people of the small island nearby ran down to the water in the storm and pulled survivors out. By many accounts, they had very little food themselves, and gave the sailors what they had. 69 men survived. Japan sent them home on two of its own warships.

    Japan mostly forgot. Turkey didn't. Generations of Turkish kids learned the story at school.

    March 1985. War between Iran and Iraq. Iraq announced it would shoot down any plane over Iran after a deadline. More than 200 Japanese were stuck in Tehran, and under Japan's laws at the time, its own military planes could not go and get them.

    Turkey sent two Turkish Airlines planes. They flew 215 Japanese out before the deadline.

    When people later asked why, the answer from Turkey kept coming back to one word. Ertugrul.

    Today, Kushimoto still holds a memorial for the sailors, and Turkey still sends people to stand there.

  • ISTANBUL TURKEY
    WHERE TWO CONTINENTS MEET

    Few cities connect worlds quite like Istanbul. The Bosphorus divides the city between Europe and Asia, creating one of the most remarkable urban landscapes on Earth.

    From Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque to Topkapı Palace, Galata Tower and the centuries-old Grand Bazaar, Istanbul blends Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman heritage with a vibrant modern metropolis.
    One city. Two continents. Thousands of years of history

  • Bir zamanlar devletlerin ticaretinde, bugün insanların birikiminde.

    Fatih Sultan Mehmed’in bastırdığı sultânî, Osmanlı’nın adını taşıyan ilk altın paraydı. Tüccarlar için ödeme aracı olan bu küçük sikke, aynı zamanda üzerinde basıldığı şehrin ve hükümdarın izlerini taşıyordu.

    Yüzyıllar sonra ona baktığımızda altının değerinin yalnızca ağırlığından ibaret olmadığını görüyoruz. Altın, insanların emeğini saklamak ve geleceğe taşımak için de hayatlarında yer buluyor.

  • Şanlıurfa’nın gecesi bir başka…

    Tarihin taşlara işlendiği, kandil ışıklarının sokağa ayrı bir ruh kattığı bir akşam.
    Gökyüzündeki yıldızlar, ışıklarla süslenen sokaklar ve Hasan Paşa Camii’nin ihtişamı…

    Bazı şehirler gezilmez, hissedilir.
    Şanlıurfa da onlardan biri.

  • 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?
