Interesting facts about this location

Sakarya River

The Sakarya is the third longest river in Turkey. It runs through what in ancient times was known as Phrygia. The source of the river is the Bayat Yaylası which is located to the northeast of Afyon. Joined by the Porsuk Çayı (Porsuk Creek) close by the town of Polatlı, the river runs through the Adapazarı Ovası before reaching the Black Sea. The Sakarya was once crossed by the Sangarius Bridge, constructed by the East Roman Emperor Justinian I (r. 527-565).
