If you are tired of the crowds in Istanbul and feel that Cappadocia is too touristy, then **Samsun**, this unpopular town on the Black Sea coast, will definitely surprise you! There are both historical traces of the Ottoman Empire and beautiful coastal scenery. The key is that there are few people and low prices, and the cost performance is super high! 

### **🌊 Must-visit attractions** 
1. **Bandırma Vapuru Museum Ship** 
This steamship is the &quot;starting point of restoration&quot; where Kemal, the father of Turkey, landed in Samsun in 1919. The ship was transformed into a memorial hall. It is a must-see for history lovers! 

2. **Amisos Hill Ancient Ruins** 
The top of the mountain hides the tombs of the ancient Greek-Roman period. After climbing to the top, you can overlook the entire Black Sea coastline. The sunset is so beautiful that it is suffocating! 

3. **Atakum Seaside Promenade** 
Locals&rsquo; favorite walking spot, 6 kilometers long beach trail, along the way are sea view cafes, recommend trying **Black Sea specialty herring sandwich**! 

### **🍴 Foodie Guide** 
- **K&uuml;mbet Balık&ccedil;ısı**: A seafood restaurant strongly recommended by locals, must order **Karides G&uuml;ve&ccedil;** (cheese baked shrimp) and **Mıhlama** (corn paste cheese pot). 
- **Samsun Pidecisi**: A specialty store of Turkey&rsquo;s &quot;Black Sea Pizza&quot;, the signature **Etli Ekmek** (long meat pie) is only 50 lira per person! 

### **💡 Practical Tips** 
- **Transportation**: Istanbul has direct flights (1.5 hours), the city&rsquo;s public transportation system is complete, and it is cheaper to take a taxi using BiTaksi. 
- **Accommodation**: Recommended sea view homestays in the Atakum area, you can stay in a room with a balcony for 200+ RMB in the off-season! 
- **Season**: Best from June to September, but even in winter it is around 12℃, suitable for avoiding the cold. 

**✨ Niche gameplay easter egg** 
- Go to **Ladik town** to soak in hot springs on weekends (1 hour drive), the natural sulfur spring at the foot of the snow-capped mountains is only 30 liras! 
- Buy **Black Sea handmade silverware** at the market, more than half cheaper than Istanbul~ 

Samsun is like Turkey&#39;s &quot;paradise&quot;, without a large number of tourists, only a slow-paced life and simple smiles. If you also yearn for &quot;real Turkey&quot;, this place is definitely worth a special trip! 🌅 (Remember to bring a swimsuit, you can actually go into the Black Sea!)
