EDITORS COMMENTS
Beykoz Paper Factory on the Banks of the Bosphorus, Istanbul, Turkey: A Glimpse into the Past This photograph, taken circa 1910s, offers a glimpse into the rich history of Beykoz, a picturesque district located at the northern end of the Bosphorus on the Anatolian (Asian) side of Istanbul, Turkey. The photograph features the Beykoz Paper Factory, which once stood proudly on the banks of the Bosphorus. The Bosphorus, a narrow strait that connects the Black Sea to the Sea of Marmara, has been a vital waterway for centuries, linking Europe and Asia. The location of the Beykoz Paper Factory on its shores provided easy access to raw materials and transportation, making it an ideal site for industrial development. The factory, with its tall smokestacks and sprawling buildings, stands in stark contrast to the serene beauty of the Bosphorus and the lush greenery that surrounds it. The workers, dressed in traditional Turkish clothing, can be seen busy at work, feeding raw materials into the machinery or tending to the finished products. The Beykoz Paper Factory was a significant contributor to Istanbul's industrial landscape during the early 20th century. Paper production was a thriving industry in the city, and the factory's location on the Bosphorus allowed it to benefit from the abundant natural resources and the bustling trade activity in the region. Today, the Beykoz Paper Factory is no longer in operation, but the site remains an important part of Istanbul's industrial history. The photograph serves as a reminder of the city's rich past and its role as a bridge between Europe and Asia, both culturally and economically.
