As Napoleon once said, “If the world was only one country, Istanbul would be its capital”
Europe isn’t a real continent.
Tokyo is cheating!
Suez City is not even in Asia, look at the map, the entire cityscape is in Africa, to the left of the canal. El-Qantara is the actual Egyptian transcontinental city, it actually has a built-up cityscape on both Africa and Asia.
The reason they gave for Tokyo is just bullshit, then it’s not the city but the administrative area. Same thing for Almeria, the Alboran island is part of the administrative area of Almeria sure, but not actually part of the city seeing as it’s 100km away
Orenburg and Atyrau is correct, the cities are truly separated by the Ural river. And Istanbul is obviously undeniably transcontinental. There is also Magnitogorsk which the image forgot.
Istanbul is the only one where you literally see the evidence before your astounded eyes.
İstanbul is the only transcontinental city, others are just some normal cites.
And Azores? Could this archipelago be between 3 continents, from the geostructural point of view?
[From a geostructural perspective, the Azores are located above an active triple junction between three of the world’s major tectonic plates (the North American Plate, the Eurasian Plate and the African Plate),[21] a condition that has translated into the existence of many faults and fractures in this region of the Atlantic.](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azores)
I have doubts about Alboran Isle being considered in the African continent, I cannot find information about it, it seems to be of volcanic origin just where the 2 tectonic plaques crush, so maybe it is just in the middle.
🎵Every gal in Constantinople
Lives in Istanbul, not Constantinople
So if you’ve a date in Constantinople
She’ll be waiting in Istanbul 🎵
It is just Istanbul, all the others are reaching hard as fuck. Istanbul is the only one with transcontinental public transport.
another city in türkiye is trancontinental too. çanakkale
Europe and Asia are the same continent tho
officially, Ural river separates Europe and Asia only on Russian territory. In Kazakhstan it turns to the west and ultimately flows into the Caspian sea, meanwhile Europe-Asia border goes further to the south, along with Or and Emba rivers and Mugodzhary hills (which is a southern extension of Ural mountains). So Atyrau is fully in Europe.
