Amasya

Today I went to Amasya, six hours east from Ankara. Amasya is a very nice town which is along a big river (the biggest i have seen in turky till now) in a narrow valley surrounded by high mountains. It has a pleasant well ottoman neighborhood with traditional houses next to the river. On the mountain above it there are some huge graves dig in the rock. Above them, on the top of the mountain, there are the ruins of a castle from which the view over the valley is beautiful. Up there we meet to friendly american guys who were visiting turkey in a low-cost way, as we try to do, and we exchanged some useful tips. Once more, local people were really kind, helping us as much as they could, giving us lifts or - if they didn't have a car - taking us on foot where we wanted to go.
