EDITORS COMMENTS
Basking in the golden glow of the setting sun, the enchanting cityscape of Trabzon, Turkey, unfolds before the eye from atop Poz-tepe, a hill overlooking the Black Sea coast. The capital city of Trabzon Province, Trabzon has a rich and storied history, rooted in its strategic location on the historic Silk Road route. During the Ottoman period, Trabzon's importance as a major port town flourished, making it a focal point of trade with Iran, India, and the Caucasus. The photograph, captured in 1903, presents a breathtaking panorama of the bustling town, its labyrinthine streets and colorful rooftops cascading down the hillside, leading to the vibrant harbor below. The shimmering bay, dotted with fishing boats, reflects the vibrant hues of the setting sun, casting a warm, golden glow over the water. In the distance, the silhouette of the Trabzon Fortress stands proudly against the horizon, a testament to the city's storied past. The lush, green landscape is dotted with cypress trees, their stately forms adding a sense of tranquility and serenity to the scene. The road winding its way along the coastline, leading to the town, is a reminder of the countless travelers who have passed through this historic city, leaving their mark on its rich tapestry of history and culture. As the sun sets, the sky above Trabzon transforms into a canvas of fiery oranges, reds, and pinks, casting a magical glow over the town and the tranquil bay below. This hilltop view from Poz-tepe offers a glimpse into the heart and soul of Trabzon, a city steeped in history, tradition, and natural beauty.
