ISTANBUL

Until 1930 Constantinople and in ancient times Byzantium or Byzantion, with a population of between around 12 million people, Istanbul is the largest city of Turkey and by some counts one of the largest cities in Europe. Istanbul is literally incomparable. No other city bestrides two continents or has been an imperial capital for more than 1,500 years. Founded by the Roman emperor Constantine on the site of the ancient Greek colony of Byzantium, and called Constantinople after him, it became the eastern capital of the Roman Empire and later the capital of the Byzantine Empire. After the Fall of Constantinople in 1453 it became part of and soon capital of the Ottoman Empire. Only on 28th March 1930, was the city officially renamed Istanbul. The old city is mainly located on the Bosphorus strait, which separates Europe from Asia and the Black Sea from the Marmara Sea. However, the modern city is much larger and covers both European and Asian sides of the Bosporus.
