From Konuralp to the Akçakoca coast

A driving route from the ancient theater of the Bithynian city of Prusias ad Hypium, known as 'Kırk Basamaklar' (the Forty Steps), and the Konuralp Museum, which displays the Orpheus mosaic, down to the Black Sea coast; it ends at the Akçakoca Central Mosque, whose roof is inspired by an otağ (imperial tent), and the Genoese Castle on the cliff.

Safety and caution

The steps of the ancient theater are uneven; do not go inside the excavation barriers. At the Genoese Castle the cliff edges are high and in places have no railings; keep a close eye on children.
