Boztepe is the hill above Ordu and the city's simplest pleasure. The cable car rises from near the waterfront to a terrace of cafes, picnic spots, and views over the Black Sea, the harbour, and the city pressed between water and green slopes.
Go late in the afternoon if the weather is clear. The view is the attraction, but the ride itself is half the fun: a quick aerial crossing from city streets to the hilltop.
