Yalıboyu Houses
Lined along and around the historic city walls on the banks of the Yeşilırmak River, the Yalıboyu Houses are among the most characteristic elements of Amasya’s traditional urban skyline. Their timber-frame construction, adobe infill, bay windows, courtyards, and floor plans organized around a sofa reflect local features of Ottoman-period residential culture.
