Istanbul, the Straits of the Bosporus and the Dardanelles
Two strategic waterways, the Bosporus and the Dardanelles, have for centuries limited Russia’s access to the sea. Istanbul sits at the southern end of the Bosporus and has controlled the entrance into the Straits for over 2,500 years. History enthusiast and Shell Point resident Seth Mendell will transport the audience to Istanbul, through the waterways separating Europe from Asia, and down the Turkish Aegean coast to the ancient city ruins of Troy and Ephesus.
