Begin with the Trabzon Museum, then shape the rest of the morning around nearby historic landmarks. The museum is in the city-centre itinerary, alongside places such as St. Anna Church, Güzelhisar Castle, Abdullah Paşa Çeşmesi and Gülbahar Hatun Mosque.

If you want to make the museum the focus of this part of the day, the Trabzon Museum and Kostaki Mansion visit has its own place in a city itinerary.

For a route built around walking, the Trabzon city-centre walking tour is another relevant companion.

Afternoon: visit Atatürk Köşkü

Atatürk Köşkü is a municipal visitor site and a good anchor for the afternoon portion of this route. Its winter opening hours are daily from 09:00 to 17:00; hours can change seasonally, so check the official site before you go.

Bus schedules are organised by route number and distinguish weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays. If you plan to use a bus, look up the current schedule for your day rather than relying on a single departure pattern.

Route 141 serves Boztepe (Çukurçayır), with separate schedules for weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays. The Boztepe viewpoint is the natural subject to pair with this final stop.
