History and Culture of Ordu
Ordu looks like a young city, its waterfront rebuilt and its hills covered in modern houses, but the coast it stands on has been traveled, traded and settled for millennia.

Ordu looks like a young city, its waterfront rebuilt and its hills covered in modern houses, but the coast it stands on has been traveled, traded and settled for millennia.

Ordu is a superb base for exploring the Black Sea coast and the mountains behind it.

Ordu cooks with what the sea and the hills provide: anchovies in every form, the cheese and butter of the highlands, collard greens from the gardens, and hazelnuts in everything sweet.

Ordu is a compact city, and its accommodation choices are refreshingly simple.

Ordu is a city of small, deep pleasures: a cable car ride over the rooftops, a slow walk along a Black Sea promenade, a morning in a preserved old quarter, and afternoons in the high meadows of the mountains…

Ordu is the Black Sea city that most travelers miss, and that is precisely its charm.
