Anadolu Feneri is a lighthouse on the Asian side of the Bosphorus at its Black Sea entrance in Istanbul, Turkey, and it remains in use. Built in 1755 and standing 19 metres tall, it takes its name from the Turkish for Anatolia and "fener," meaning lighthouse. It stands across the strait from Rumeli Feneri, about 2 nautical miles away, and a line between the two marks the northern boundary of the Port of Istanbul.
