Giresun combines a busy port city with older neighbourhoods on slopes above the sea. Castle hill rises over the buildings and offers the clearest overview of the city and coast. A walk through its green grounds complements time in the streets and along the waterfront below.
Hazelnuts are an important part of local life. They grow in the surrounding countryside, are sold in city shops and feature in sweets.
