Elazığ

About Elazığ

In eastern Anatolia, Elazığ stands out with the clear waters of Lake Hazar and the castle of historic Harput. The Keban Dam reservoir, the Buzluk ice cave and the Hazar Baba ski centre add variety, and the lakeshore is ideal for camping and water sports. Harput, with its folk songs and cuisine, is the heart of the city; orcik and Harput meatballs are local specialities.
