EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, the Turkish Navy submarine "Sakarya" is docked at the Haidar Pacha Station on the Asian side of Istanbul, Turkey. The image, taken in the circa 1930s, offers a glimpse into the rich maritime history of Constantinople, now known as Istanbul. The Haidar Pacha Station, located at Kadikoy, is a historic landmark that once served as a major transport hub for the Ottoman Empire. The station's grandeur is evident in the background, with its impressive architecture and the Haydarpasa Terminal Pasha, a beautiful train station, standing tall. The Turkish Navy submarine "Sakarya," named after the Sakarya River in Turkey, was one of the first modern submarines in the Turkish Navy. Commissioned in 1934, the submarine was a significant addition to the Turkish military, enhancing the country's defensive capabilities in the face of external threats. The photograph captures the submarine's sleek design and imposing presence as it rests at the dock, surrounded by the bustling activity of the Haidar Pacha Station. The image offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the intersection of maritime technology and history in Istanbul during the early 20th century. The photograph is a testament to the city's enduring significance as a crossroads of cultures and a vital transportation hub, both on land and at sea. The Turkish Navy submarine "Sakarya" and the Haidar Pacha Station stand as symbols of Istanbul's rich maritime heritage and its continued role as a vital link between Europe and Asia.
