Relaxing in a Hammock by the Rivers of Ağva

by Max on July 27, 2008

Ağva is a small town by the Black Sea in the Şile district, 97 km from Istanbul and 50 km from the town Şile.
Ağva is located on the delta of the Göksu and Yesilçay rivers originating at the Çal Hill (Çal Tepesi) in Izmit. Needless to say that the very green shores of these rivers create a rather exotic ambience. The hotels are mostly located on the banks of these rivers.
