Its story
Seben is surrounded by highland pastures at an average altitude of 1,400 m around Kiraz Dağı, and one of the most important of these is the Kızık Highland. The highland's houses were built without using any nails, by interlocking pine logs and roofing them in a joinery fashion. With their stairs kept high above the ground, wide hearths and distinctive furnishings, these houses are striking examples of local architecture. The highland among pine forests is suitable for day getaways in the summer months with its cool air and walking opportunities.
