Erythini is an archaeological site of an ancient city located on a hillside a few kilometers from Amasra. Founded in the Hellenistic period and later expanded under Roman rule, the site features remnants of a small theater, sections of city walls, and scattered architectural fragments such as column drums and stone blocks. Visitors can wander among the ruins, imagining the city's past life, and enjoy views of the surrounding countryside. The site is less crowded than major ruins, offering a peaceful exploration experience.
