Rize stretches along the sea at the foot of green hills. The modern city, waterfront and tea planted on surrounding slopes reveal the character of this part of Türkiye. Its appeal is local life: drinking tea with a sea view and trying dishes from the eastern Black Sea coast.
Tea culture can be explored within the city at Ziraat Garden above the centre. It overlooks the sea, the urban hillsides and the castle. An excursion to plantations nearby continues that experience beyond the built-up area.
