EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a vintage tram making its way down Istik Lal Caddesi, or Istiklal Street, in Istanbul, Turkey, en route to Chichli Tunel (Chichli Tunnel) around the turn of the twentieth century. The tram, a popular mode of transportation in Constantinople, now known as Istanbul, is seen passing by a section of the street undergoing repairs. Road workers can be seen mending the damaged road surface, while the tram tracks remain intact, allowing the tram to continue its journey. The image offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the city's rich history and the evolution of its transportation system. Istiklal Street, one of the busiest shopping streets in Istanbul, is a vibrant and bustling area filled with cafes, shops, and historic sites. The tram, with its distinctive design and vintage charm, was a staple of the city's transportation network during this era. The Chichli Tunnel, a crucial part of the tram route, connected the European and Asian sides of Istanbul, making it an essential connection for both residents and visitors. This photograph, taken circa 1920, is a testament to the resilience and adaptability of Istanbul's transportation system, even during periods of maintenance and repair. The tram, despite the ongoing road works, continues its journey, symbolizing the city's unwavering commitment to keeping its people connected and moving. The image also highlights the unique blend of old and new, as the traditional tram coexists with the modernization efforts taking place on the streets of Istanbul.
