Marmara
The Marmara Region in northwestern Turkey is the country's bridge and connection to Europe, with Turkey's largest city, Istanbul, at its heart. The region is named after the sea it surrounds: the Sea of Marmara, connected to the Aegean Sea by the Straits Dardanelles, and to the Black Sea by the Bosporus.
