We were tired of tours when we arrived in Sinop. The town is very close to the port so we decided to tour the town on our own.From the pier we had a great picture of the M/S Riviera an Oceania Cruise ship.

Sinop is located on a narrow strip of land. It is easy to walk from one side to the other.
Walking around town we had the opportunity to see the shops and mingle with the people. We decided to find the Sinop Fortress Prison which is where the movie Midnight Express was filmed. The prison is no longer used.
The walls of the prison fortress are made up of ruins from Greek and Roman ruins. In this picture you can see sections of columns cut and used in the base of the wall.
