Tarabya (Therapia), Istanbul, Turkey - Circa 1907: This evocative photograph captures the enchanting beauty and tranquility of Tarabya (Therapia) on the European shores of the Bosphorus in Istanbul, Turkey. The area, famous for its aromatic raspberries, was a popular retreat for the European expatriate community during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. In the foreground, a picturesque garden adorned with vibrant flowers and lush greenery provides a serene backdrop to the bustling activity of the waterfront. A steamboat and a steamship are anchored in the distance, their smokestacks belching plumes of steam against the clear blue sky. The Bosphorus Strait, a vital waterway connecting the Black Sea to the Sea of Marmara, stretches out towards the horizon, dotted with boats and ships. Tarabya was also the site of the former British Consulate, which still owns a garden there. The consulate, established in the late 1800s, played a significant role in the diplomatic and commercial relations between the Ottoman Empire and the British Empire during the Constantinople period. The area is now renowned for its world-class restaurants and hotels, offering visitors an unforgettable experience of Turkish hospitality and cuisine. The aroma of fresh raspberries wafts through the air, a reminder of Tarabya's rich history and natural beauty. This photograph, taken circa 1907, transports us back in time to an era of elegance and sophistication, making it a must-see destination for history buffs, foodies, and travelers alike.
