Batık Minare
You need a weekend where you actually put the phone down. Batık Minare over in Bafra is one way to get there. Outdoor spots can pull a bigger weekend crowd than you'd guess — if that turns out true here, going early beats fighting the afternoon rush. Bring water, comfortable shoes, and a spare shirt: that's the base kit, add the rest depending on the season.
