I have stayed at Boyuyuk Abant Hotel located in this natural park, with my sister in Mid November 2020. The place is so beautiful especially in Autumn and worth visiting but it gets extremely cold as well (sometimes down to 4 or 3 c in the evening!) and u get to see the autumn foil of the forrests with magnificent color variations!

Sumela Monastery was established at the intersection of these ancient roads, which are used extensively. it is believed that the first inhabitants of the region were members of the Turan (Turkish tribes )race, who migrated from Central Asia and the Caucasus.Phoenicians,Assyrians , miletans ,Medes,Persians,Alexander the great,the Pontic state ,Rome,eastern Rome, the Kingdom of Komnenos and the Ottomans ruled in these lands. the date of the first establishment of monasteries(Christian) goes back to the 3rd century. Saint Basileios , one of the 3 Christian fathers of Cappadocia, who first organized monastic life and organization. Virgin Mary (Panaghia) Greek Sumela of the monastery founded in the name of The name is originally from the word Melas, which means black and dark. It is stated that it may be. This name is dark colored, where the monastery was founded. Although it is thought to come from Karadağ mountain, the word Sumela here It can also be attributed to the black color of the depiction of Mary(fresco). It is thought that the monastery was first built into the cave that was formed by natural ways. It is thought that it took its present form in a process that lasted about 300 years in 4 centuries. It is thought that the monastery was first built inside the cave that was formed by natural ways. It is thought that it took its present form in a process that started in the 4th century and lasted about 300 years. (4-7 centuries). but the Monastery received its final form, which exists today, during the construction activities carried out during the reign of Alexios III(14 century) during the reign of the Komnenos of Trabzon (Pontus). there are various rumors about the foundation of the monastery.one of them, by order of the Roman emperor in the 4th century ( I It was built in the time of Theodosius (375-395)) by 2 priests named Barnabas and Sophronios from Athens. According to another rumor, within the Virgin Mary and jesus It is said that two priests, who saw that a painting believed to be found was not burned when it was thrown into the fire and did not deteriorate in contact with water, hung this painting on the ceiling of a cave where water was dripping on the ceiling of the mountain, and then this monastery was considered sacred. After Theodoisios I, during the reign of Theodosios II, the construction activities continued in Sumela,then During the reign of Emperor Anastasios (491- 518) and then the building was rebuilt by Belisarios (Dara battle (AD 530), the general of Justinianus (527-565). The monastery mainly consists of the following sections; main rock church, chapels, student rooms, guest section, library, aqueduct, aya'zma ... In the 14th century, the Sumela monastery was exempted from all taxes and prohibitions during the reign of Alexios III.This tradition continued during the Ottoman Empire and the Fatih sultan Mehmet(II Mehmet) Sumela, who conquered Trabzon, excluded the monastery and its employees from taxes. An interesting incident occurs about it. In the 17th century, Ottoman tax officials demanded taxes from 2 monks working in the monastery. The priests had no accumulated money, did not do agriculture and did not earn money, so they appealed to the Ottoman courts. Osmanli sent the order to Trabzon beylerbeyi (Trabzon state )stated clearly that no tax was collected from the employees of this monastery from now on, as before. There are hundreds of frescoes in the monastery that are quoted from the Torah and the Bible. It is thought that these frescoes were made by different masters and priests in 3 different periods. the different colors used in the frescoes ,the different sizes and compositions of the frescoes, and the absence of any chronological order in the frescoes, indicate that the frescoes were made in 3 or 4 different periods.the earliest frescoes are believed to belong to the 4th century, the century of the construction of the monastery.other frescoes are thought to have been made later in the 9th and 10th centuries and in the 17th century. While the frescoes were renewed, small scratches of 2-3 millimeters deep were made on the old frescoes, making the newly made frescoes stronger. The frescoes describe 100's of events in the Torah and the Bible.

Would you like to feel like in Arizona in Turkey? This underrated undiscovered place should be on your bucket list! Arizona is famous for it's canyons. Bur in Turkey, we felt like spending a day in Arizona when we discovered this fantastic Canyon! To visit this Canyon, you can stay at the nearby cities where you can combine different activities. We Were staying in the City Sinop; however, a bigger town Samsun is nearby. There are a lot of undiscovered hiking roads, so the beautiful nature is untouched! Let me tell you more about this canyon'. The Canyon Vezir Kopru or the Roman City named that is named under the great ruler the emperor Jules Cesar "Neopolis" is located in Turkish city Samsun. These canyons we visit are located in a small town in Vezirkopru where Turkey's longest river, "Red River" or Kizil Irmak, created them. The place is not discovered by massive tourism companies yet. So this makes it extraordinarily attractive for travel explorers like you and us. For more information or tips, do not hesitate to leave comments or send us an e-mail.
