AI overview
The Bosporus Strait is a narrow waterway that connects the Black Sea to the Sea of Marmara, with Istanbul situated on its banks and the strait marking the geographic boundary between Europe and Asia. It matters because it serves as a crucial passageway for maritime traffic between these two regions and between the continents.
