After the breakfast at the Uluhan Hotel I packed all my stuff and put them on my motorcycle.
As agreed with Hatice and Stefan who are living at their farm in Ovasaray I took the route to the village. Around 10:30 I arrived there and changed my motorcycle suit. They took me with their Jeep
to the fields where they had their agricultural products (already harvested or still on the field).
We drove through some fields, beneath didges and through nice trees. I also took some pictures of the surrounding views.

Around 12:00 we came back home and I changed my clothing and made me ready to ride. I am on the route to Erzincan. I took the route via Resadiye, Susehri, Refahiye. The roads' quality is really good.
I stopped at Refahiye for lunch. It is a fuel station right at the road side and the food is as usual 'kofte on grill'. At 16:00 o'clock I arrived at the Hotel Eriza in Erzincan. It is a city hotel right in the downtown.
There is also a nice corner at the entrance where I parked my motorcycle. Because of the pandemic all around the hotel has no customers at all. Most probably I was the second or third guest.

The young guy who is the hotel manager is very fine and friendly. We talked a little bit and he informed me about the city and places in the city. After having a shower and a short rest in my room I went out to see the city. Right in the front of the Hotel there is the famous copper market. It is a under ground market and there are lots of copper shops. I bought two pieces of cups made of copper. After putting them into the side case of motorcycle I continued to walk in the city.

| Tasty Doner Kebap in Erzincan |
The city was built on a wide and flat plateau between two mountain chains restricting the city on the north and south. Because the city is located right in the center of the earthquake zone there are rectangular or square shaped blocks. The building are 3 or max. 4 story constructions. I walked on the main streets and found one of the famous "doner restaurants". I sat there and ate a portion of doner kebap. It is very tasty though. There is nothing special in the city to see. In my opinion, it is a city to stop for lunch.
