Istanbul Ferry
In Istanbul, ferries zigzag constantly across the Bosporus strait, shuttling passengers from Europe to Asia and back again. Beloved for its complex, layered past, Istanbul is where East meets West—and may also offer a vision of what’s to come for the world's increasingly diverse cities. In Traveler's October issue, author Pico Iyer explores this "City of the Future" with photographs by Dave Yoder.
