Boztepe: Boztepe Cable Car - Ordu

About location

Tucked along Turkey’s Black Sea coast, Boztepe is a place whose character is shaped by the steep, wooded slopes rising above Ordu. This hilltop district overlooks the compact city and its broad Black Sea shoreline, where urban streets occupy a narrow coastal strip before the terrain climbs inland. The Ordu–Boztepe cable car links the hill with the city below, making the ascent part of a visit to Ordu rather than a remote mountain excursion. Ordu Province is one of Turkey’s principal hazelnut-growing areas, and the crop remains central to the regional economy and cuisine. With cafés and places to stroll, Boztepe is a familiar meeting point that expresses the sharply rising form of this Black Sea coast.

Inland, Cappadocia is known for valleys formed in soft volcanic rock and for rock-cut churches; farther west, the ruins of Ephesus recall the country’s place in the classical world. Regional character also defines Turkish cuisine, from Aegean olive-oil dishes to tea served throughout daily life.
