Crowning the Importance It Attaches to Agriculture and Production with a Festival, the district is Aluçra...
The district, which takes its name from the variety of trees found in abundance, is famous for its Aluç trees, as can be guessed. Another possibility as to where the name of the region came from is said to have been put by Fatih Sultan Mehmed, who conquered the region. It is thought that the word phrase which means hand-away, that is to say very far place, has been shortened and manifested as Aluçra today. Turks, who have lived in the region since the Malazgirt victory, described the district as a subdistrict of Giresun in 1933 and later reached the status of a district.
As in the whole Black Sea region, there are many plateaus here, and the people prefer plateaus for themselves and their animals because it is cooler in the summer months. The southern slopes of the plateaus that seem more empty, the northern slopes of the plateaus are filled with forested lands as much as they can.

The district, which has many cultural elements in terms of branding, offers its culture and flavors to everyone thanks to this festival. In addition to all these, in the crop competition organized to encourage production and encourage the farmer, the winner is awarded to the winner determined by a group of agricultural engineers.

Places to visit in Aluçra
Düyun-u Public
These buildings, which consist of two different buildings, which were used as Düyun-u public buildings in the Ottoman period, shed light on the history with the inscriptions in them. In one of the buildings, which are known to have been built in 1899, there are also areas used as a barn and storage area at the same time. Today there are five different shops under it. Locals like to sit in these shops because it is located on the street. If you have a holiday plan in Giresun Aluçra, in the Black Sea region famous for its tea, we recommend you to sit in the tea houses and have a tea.
Historic Abu Hayat Fountain
Although the most striking part about the historical fountain, which was built in 1870 and has been preserved with various treatments, is the water structure, the decorations on it are also interesting.

There are two drinking water sources and a hot water source in the spa area in Aktepe village, where you can watch the forest in all shades of green in the north around the Belen stream and collect unforgettable memories in the naturally formed caves in the Hayranlı stream in the south.

Kamisli Church:
If you stay in Aluçra hotels, you can visit the village of Kamishli, 2 km from the center. Although it looks like a ruin due to neglect, we are sure that the church inside will attract the attention of history buffs. The building, which was built by Architect Çolak Kosti in 1890, served as a place of worship for the Greek people living in the region. Rubble stone was used in its general structure and basalt and andesite stones were also used in the building.
