Walking Tour around the Historical Ciha Castle👣🏰RIZE Pazar

178
I took a walk around and inside the historical Ciha Castle in Rize's Pazar District.
Ciha Castle (Laz: Lamğoşi Cixa) is a castle located in Pazar district of Rize province. It is estimated that the castle was used for communication and surveillance purposes and was built by the Genoese in the 14th century. It is 7 kilometers away from Pazar district. It lies to the east of Hemşin Creek. It has a circular plan. There is an entrance gate supported by two towers in the north-east of the castle. There is another tower with a circular plan in the middle of the castle.
Etymology
The old name of Yücehisar village, where the castle is located, is Lamğo. The Laz name of the castle, "Lamğoşi ciha", took its name from here. It was forgotten over time that the word "Ciha" meant castle in Laz, and the name of the castle was translated into Turkish as "Ciha Castle".
Features
The walls of the castle are 1.2 to 1.8 meters wide, although they vary from region to region. The length of the interior is 27 meters and the width is 22 meters. The northeast of the castle is very well preserved. The maximum height of the castle is 6 to 7 meters.[2] The castle, whose altitude is 350 meters on the hill it is located on, covers an area of 640 square meters. Source: tr.wikipedia.o...)
