Another trip I went on was to Amasya, which was one of the most beautiful places I visited in Turkey. The small city is set in a steep valley, with a river running through the center. Many of the homes are built right over the river, and there was a long walkway along one side. The week I visited, there was a week-long art show featuring about 50 booths/displays along this walkway. Cut into the rock walls over the city are several massive tombs, and overlooking the entire city is an old castle perched on a tall peak. I enjoyed a very relaxing stay here, and would want to visit again.
