MEMORIA: Meet Me
Ordu is a port city on the Black Sea coast of Turkey, historically also known as Cotyora or Kotyora, and the capital of Ordu Province with a population of 229,214 in the city center. The Sağra (chocolate brand) factory shop, selling many varieties of chocolate-covered hazelnuts, is one of the town's attractions. The Boztepe aerial tramway is another popular attraction which is set to become a modern symbol for the city. Local music is typical of the Black Sea region, including the kemençe. The cuisine is primarily based on local vegetables and includes both typical Turkish dishes — such as pide and kebab — and more interesting fare such as plain or caramel 'burnt ice-cream' (Wikipedia).
Having seen at least 50 cities out of 81 in Turkey, I personally find Ordu to be one of the most photographic ones. Early in the morning, I found this dock with a beautiful texture and beautiful clouds helped a lot with the scenary.
