Amasya Merkez Essentials

Amasya is defined by its dramatic setting along the Yeşilırmak River, where Harşena Mountain rises behind a row of traditional Ottoman mansions. This selection highlights the city's historical layers, from the Hellenistic rock-cut tombs of the Pontic kings to 13th-century Seljuk mosques and 15th-century Ottoman medical centers. Key sites include the expansive castle ruins, the Darüşşifa where music was used for healing, and the Sultan II. Beyazıt complex, showcasing the architectural evolution of this former Ottoman princely residence.
