We took this photography about three years ago when we took a trip to Turkey. We went to Turkey to visit some friends. This photo is one of the most beautiful landscapes of Istanbul. 
This picture shows the Bosphorus which is a narrow, natural strait and an internationally significant waterway located in northwestern Turkey. One can also see Hagia Sophia (Sancta Sophia in Latin), one of the most famous mosque in the world because of its history. Hagia Sophia is the former Greek Orthodox Christian patriarchal cathedral, later an Ottoman imperial mosque and now a museum. You can still see many pictures of Christian’s saints and crosses.
Another interesting thing in this photo is the ferries docked. These ferries are taken by hundreds of people every day when they go to work from East to West. In other words, Istanbul has a European and Asian side. So one needs to cross the strait to move to downtown where most of the businesses are located.
I also like this photo very much because it brings me many good memories of my trip and the people we met in Turkey, wonderful and happy people.
