Trabzon

Located in the north-east of Turkey , Trabzon is a city with a centuries-old past. Its origins date back to the 6th century BC . Due to its location - right on the shores of the Black Sea, as well as at the intersection of trade routes, it developed rapidly for a long time and enjoyed considerable autonomy.

The Silk Road ran through Trabzon, and the wealth of the city was evidenced by beautifully decorated, gilded buildings.
