Sakarya

Sakarya Essentials

Sakarya bridges the gap between antiquity and modernity. The late Roman Justinian Bridge spans the Sakarya River, while the Byzantine ruins of Harmantepe Castle stand in Söğütlü. Modern life centers around the Adapazarı Cultural Center and Sakarya Art Center. Green spaces like Kent Park offer casual dining, and the Serdivan Park Mall serves as a commercial hub. For recreation, the Karasu district features a seasonal theme park on the Black Sea coast.
