Amasya in 1970 (109)

Amasya in 1970 (109)
Central Amasya. From what I can determine, the large structure in the center is the Sultan Bayezıt II Kulliye (Center) which was constructed in 1485 - 86.

As noted in an adjacent picture, coal was used for heat in those days, which is the reason for the gray skies. Photo is from a slide taken when I was in the military and stationed in Turkey (1969 to 1970); restoration of the slides was by a friend.
