Abstract: The number of the recorded cultural entities along with the natural sources in the Çoruh Valley- Erzurum axis has been seen as the indicator of touristic significance. Although the region is ecologically and socio-culturally rich, it could not reach to the level that it deserves in the culture and tourism industry. Asignificant development in tourism, other than the winter sports, has not been observed in spite of the rich touristic capacity. Agreat development in tourism in the region has been expected as the touristic significance of Turkey has increased.
