Transferring the architectural marks of the
respective era of communities that have lived since most ancient times in
history to the next generation is a necessity.
Marauding of our cultural assets of the past through rapidly changing
live conditions, urbanization, population growth, gradual depletion of natural
resources, industrialization, deliberate and unconscious destruction renders
protection of cultural assets necessary.
History of Amasya City is also a settlement that dates back to ancient
civilizations. It has succeeded in protecting its historical texture substantially
up to date. However, the city is gradually facing the risk of losing the unique
characteristic due to unplanned urbanization. This study presents the cultural,
historical and architectural characteristics of Yalıboyu Houses, which hold
abundant examples of the civil architectural of Amasya City, and examines and
evaluates the layout characteristics, plan and facade arrangements and the load
bearing systems of the registered civil architectural examples in detail.
