There are over 15 million people living there and its total area comprises over 5 thousand square kilometers.

As the boats are actually an essential means of transport for those Istanbul locals who live and work between the two continents.

On the European side, you can find Eminönü (to the south of the Galata bridge) and Beşiktaş (between the two bridges on the Bosphorus).
