Amasya Mezarlık Dug into the walls of the mountainsides are the final resting places for old Sultans. |
Amasya Along the river in Amasya are some nicely restored Ottoman-style houses, of course with a lovely little mosque tucked in between. |

Emrah taking in the scenery Behind him there are stairs which lead directly into the center of town. When I visited this town I felt right away that this was a place I would be comfortable living, given the opportunity. |
Amasya Looking back the other way from the river, you can see some of the normal city bustle. You can also see mountains rising on the other side of the city. Amasya is beautifully tucked into a valley with mountains rising all around, it has a very cosy feeling because of it. |
