EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the breathtaking beauty and rich history of Izmit, Turkey, formerly known as Nicomedia, Astacus, or Kocaeli. Located 87 km southeast of Istanbul, Izmit is a city steeped in ancient history, having served as the eastern and most senior capital city of the Roman Empire between 286 and 324 AD. Founded in 712 BC, Izmit's storied past is evident in its well-preserved arsenal and harbor anchorage, which have stood the test of time. The harbor, a vital commercial and military hub, is nestled among the rolling hills and lush greenery, creating a picturesque scene that belies the city's tumultuous past. The waters shimmer in the sunlight, reflecting the vibrant colors of the ships anchored in the distance. The arsenal, a testament to Izmit's military history, looms in the background, its imposing walls and towers a reminder of the city's past strength and resilience. Despite its rich history, Izmit has faced its fair share of challenges. In 1999, the city was devastated by a 7.4 magnitude earthquake that killed over 19,000 people and left many more homeless. The city is still recovering from the disaster, but its spirit remains unbroken. The people of Izmit continue to rebuild their lives and their city, drawing strength from its storied past and the promise of a brighter future. This photograph captures a moment in time, a snapshot of a city that is both a testament to the past and a beacon of hope for the future. The beauty of Izmit's natural surroundings, the grandeur of its historical sites, and the resilience of its people make it a truly remarkable place, worthy of admiration and respect.
