Ordu

Ordu, the capital of Ordu Province, graces the eastern slopes of Boztepe hill on Turkey's Black Sea coast.  The city's name reflects its rich past.  Originally called Kotyora, meaning "a place where pottery is made" in the indigenous Colchian language, its contemporary name, Ordu, translates to "army camp" in Ottoman Turkish, referencing its proximity to an Ottoman military outpost.

Explore Ordu and discover a blend of history and natural beauty. Take a thrilling ride up Boztepe on the Ordu Teleferik (Cable Car) for breathtaking panoramic views of the Black Sea and the city.  Don't miss the opportunity to dine at the mountaintop restaurants while soaking in the scenery.  For panoramic views without the cable car, visit the Boztepe Lookout, which offers activities for families.  History buffs can delve into the past at the Yason Kilisesi (Yason Church), a historical site.

Ordu caters to adventurous spirits as well.  Experience the thrill of paragliding with professional crews at Ordu Paragliding, or take a walk around the lake and enjoy the viewpoint at Persembe Yaylasi (Persembe Plateau).  Immerse yourself in local history and culture at the Pasaoglu Mansion & Ethnography Museum. After a day of exploration, unwind at the popular bar and club, Vonali Celal, or enjoy the city's nightlife scene at Gardenya, Roof Bar, or Teras Cafe Bar.  Explore local shops for unique finds at Paket Speciality & Gift Shops.
