Taksim Tunnel , Beyoglu

Описание: The 2nd Oldest Subway in the World is 145 Years Old; The story of the formation of the second oldest subway in the world, after London, begins with the initiative of the French engineer Eugene Henri Gavand. Gavand observes people who are constantly shuttling between Galata, the commercial and banking center of the time, and Pera, the heart of social life, and thinks of an alternative route to Galipdede Avenue with Yüksekkaldırım Yoküsü. For an elevator-type railway project that will connect these two centers, the Ottoman Sultan came before Sultan Abdülaziz Han and received the Tunnel construction concession on 10 June 1869. Tunnel, whose operation period is determined as 42 years, is built with the `build-operate-transfer 'model.

Location: Taksim, Beyoğlu / ISTANBUL ( TURKEY)
