Tsushima Strait

The Tsushima Strait is a channel of the Korea Strait, located between Korea and Japan, connecting the Sea of Japan, the Yellow Sea, and the East China Sea. It is approximately 100 kilometers long and 65 kilometers wide, with a depth of about 140 meters. The strait is bounded by the Tsushima Islands to the west and is known for its busy sea lanes, with a commercial ferry service operating between Shimonoseki and Busan, South Korea. The strait is also an important migration and invasion path, with historical evidence suggesting that people migrated from the Korean Peninsula to northern Kyushu via the strait as far back as the 10th century BC. The strait was also the site of the decisive naval battle in the Russo-Japanese War, the Battle of Tsushima, in 1905.learn more on wikipedia
