Golden Horn (Pass by)
The Golden Horn, also known as Haliç in Turkish, is a major urban waterway and the primary inlet of the Bosphorus in Istanbul, Turkey. This natural harbor has played a crucial role in the history of Istanbul, serving as a protected anchorage for the Byzantine and Ottoman navies and commercial ships for over two millennia. Its strategic significance made it a focal point in numerous historical events, including the Byzantine Empire's defense mechanisms, such as the famous chain that was stretched across its mouth to prevent naval invasions. The Golden Horn has witnessed the rise and fall of empires and remains a vibrant and historically rich area of Istanbul today. We will not stop here, we will just pass by.
