It is clear from the passage that the Bosphorus and the Golden Horn ----.

Modern İstanbul owes much of its spirit and beauty to
the waters which bound and divide it. There is
perhaps nowhere else in town where one can
appreciate this more than from the Galata Bridge.
Certainly there are other places in İstanbul with more
panoramic views, but none where one can better
sense the intimacy which this city has with the sea. It
is here that the Bosphorus and the Golden Horn
meet, forming a site of great beauty, and together
flow into the Sea of Marmara. Thus, the visitor to the
city is advised to stroll to the Galata Bridge for his
first view of the city.
