Çorum, Provincial capital in Central Karadeniz, Turkey

Located at 801 meters above sea level, Çorum spreads across a fertile plain in north-central Turkey between Ankara and the Black Sea coast.

The area surrounding Çorum holds numerous archaeological sites from the Hittite Empire period, including the ancient capital of Hattusa from 1700 BC.

The city maintains traditional industries of copper utensil manufacturing, leather production, and hand-spinning textiles that support the local economy.

Çorum connects to major Turkish cities through regular bus services, with a distance of 244 kilometers from Ankara and 608 kilometers from Istanbul.

The city produces leblebi, roasted chickpea snacks, and features a 13th-century mosque alongside multiple Ottoman-era structures throughout its streets.
