Golden Horn meets Bosporus

photo

View looking south over part of Istanbul where the Golden Horn enters the Bosporus.  In the upper portion of the image is the Sea of Marmara.  The water on the left (east) side of the image is the Bosporus Strait.  The "Golden Horn" (river) "flows" from right to left in the center of the image—entering the Bosporus.  Note the three bridges that span the Golden Horn.

The landmass in the image is European Istanbul.
