Turkey is Full of Attractions! Here are Samsun’s Sightseeing Spots!

Turkey is a country located between West Asia and Eastern Europe. July and August have comfortable average temperatures of around 24 degrees Celsius and low probability of rain, making it a recommended season for sightseeing.

Turkey has a major city called Samsun. It is a city located in Samsun Province, and more than 300,000 people live there.

Samsun is full of attractive sightseeing spots! Here, we will introduce some of the recommended ones.

1. Bandırma Ferry Museum

Speaking of Samsun's representative spots, this is it: the "Bandırma Ferry Museum." Here, you can see a huge ship. It is a ship mainly in black and white colors, and it is very powerful!

Since it is a museum, you can see various exhibits besides this ship. There is an exhibition space where you can learn about the history of the ferry and the captain's cabin.

Regarding the exhibits, there are not just one or two. There are many historically significant exhibits, including collections of clothing and guns. In particular, the mannequins set up to recreate the people of that time are impressive!

2. Veterans Museum

Earlier, I explained one of Samsun's museum spots. However, Samsun still has another famous museum. It might be a good idea to visit several museums on this occasion.

The second recommended sightseeing spot is the "Veterans Museum." This is a tourist spot where you can learn about the history related to the soldiers of that time.

Also, in this facility in Samsun, collections of guns and shoes, as well as something like a dog object, are exhibited. What I would like to pay particular attention to is the area that expresses the soldiers' meeting. The mannequins are dressed in military uniforms, giving it a very authentic atmosphere, so you can feel the tension of that time beyond the ages!

3. Samsun City Museum

There are still more recommended museums in Samsun. Let's take this opportunity to thoroughly visit the museums and learn all about the history!

Therefore, the third recommended sightseeing spot is the "Samsun City Museum." This tourist spot is slightly different from the two museums introduced earlier.

In the case of the "Samsun City Museum," you can learn about the daily lives of the people of that time. Compared to the local people of today, there are various discoveries, and you can experience the real historical flow of a foreign land with different times and cultures. Using mannequins, the state of life at that time is well reproduced, so even children can learn about history!

Photos are also exhibited, and there are areas where the history is explained in text, so it can be said to be a wonderful sightseeing spot for people who are also studying social studies.

4. Westpark

After learning about Samsun's history at the museum, why not heal yourself in the magnificent nature?

The fourth place I would like to introduce is "Westpark." The entire area is covered with a wide green lawn facing the beautiful blue sea, making it a notable spot with two major elements of nature.

There is also a ropeway, and it is a recommended sightseeing spot where you can see the town of Samsun and the distant horizon, allowing you to feel very refreshed.

The evening view is also beautiful, so I think it would be good to visit at different times of the day!

5. Yeşilyurt Mall

When you come to Samsun, don't you want to enjoy shopping too? Shopping in a seaside city feels very fashionable!

The last recommended spot in Samsun is "Yeşilyurt Mall." This is a major large-scale shopping mall in Samsun.

Just like other shopping centers, the selection of goods is more than sufficient, so you might end up wanting to buy too many things!

◎ Summary

I have carefully selected and introduced 5 recommended sightseeing spots in Samsun! There are many attractive spots that look fun, such as various museums, parks, and shopping malls! Perhaps the museums are particularly recommended. Each has its own good points, so it would be good to visit all of them!

Also, there are still many other sightseeing spots in Samsun. Please take your time and enjoy sightseeing.
