While the world's attention is on the Mediterranean coast, Turks holiday along the Black Sea, and for good reason. The picturesque coast and intriguing cities, make it a region worth exploring. Revel in Amasra's laid-back atmosphere and then soak in Trabzon's rich history. The Sumela Monastery, a Greek Orthodox Monastery dedicated to the Virgin Mary built along a cliff face, is a spectacular sight. The pièce de résistance is the main church built into a cave, covered with frescoes both inside and out.
Explore the modern city of Rize, situated in a beautiful tea growing area.
