Turkey is a large peninsula that bridges


the continents of Europe and Asia.
Turkey is surrounded on three sides by
the Black Sea, the Mediterranean Sea,
and the Aegean Sea. Istanbul, the
largest city in Turkey, is built on land in
the Bosporus seaway. The city is partly
in Europe and partly in Asia.
Turkey's highest mountain, Mount Ararat
has two peaks, with Great Ararat
reaching 16,945 feet (5,165 meters). The
mountain is considered sacred by many
people and is believed to be where Noah
beached his ark after the great flood.
