THE JEWEL-CASE PALACE NEAR THE BANKS OF
THE SWEET WATERS OF ASIA: Between the blue of the Bosporus (Bosphorus)
and the green of the wooded hills there are many kiosks so
delicate that from a distant vantage-point they resemble
boxes of carved ivory. Near this kiosk on the banks of the
Sweet Waters of Asia are the picnic grounds which Loti and
other writers have made famous. (Rear-Admiral C.M. Chester,
1922.) Click here to enlarge. |
