My Location@19:09,7/12 Eski Hopa Artvin Yolu, 08600 Hopa/Artvin Province, Turkey http://m.google.com/u/m/zEHTdP

Tea fields on the way from Borçka to Hopa

On the way from Borçka to Hopa towards the black sea, we are passing more and more impressive tea fields:

Muratlı downtown

From Borçka, we drove a few kilometers north to the border town Muratlı, where the Coruh river enters Georgia.

Muratlı is an idyllic border village but the breathtaking wooden mosque from the 19th century justifies the venture into here!

This delicious snack is called "Mıhlama" (Corn, butter and cheese), prepared for us with cheese bread in this cosy oven of that roadside restaurant!

Yet another beautiful "black lake"!
