Bartın Province

The city of Bartın extends along the Bartın River, which stands as the sole waterway in Turkey capable of accommodating maritime vessel navigation.

The territory of Bartın traces its origins to 1200 BC when the Kaskian people established settlements before subsequent occupations by Hittites, Phrygians, and Persians.

The residential architecture of Bartın displays traditional wooden houses that incorporate design elements from the Ottoman reform period of the nineteenth century.

The city center contains twenty-two quarters, including Kırtepe and Kemerköprü, with temperatures ranging from 4°C in winter to 22.5°C during summer months.

The region encompasses both the inland provincial capital and the coastal district of Amasra, allowing visitors to experience mountain and maritime environments within short distances.
