Its story

The Anadolu Lighthouse was built in 1856 at the point where the Bosphorus opens onto the Black Sea, directly opposite the Rumeli Lighthouse, and it is still in operation. On the village shore is a small fishing harbor, and above it are historic redoubts. From the rocks around the lighthouse you can see the Black Sea, the entrance to the Bosphorus and the Yavuz Sultan Selim Bridge. Because part of the village lies within a military zone, access to some sections is restricted.
