Not a castle[edit]

It is not a castle, but the city walls of the old town! The old town of Trabzon was divided in a lower town, middle town and upper town. All of them were walled. Naming it a castle can be confusing for readers and visitors to Trabzon, as they will not understand that they are in fact looking at the remains of the 2800 years old city center, not just a fortification.

I suggest naming the article "Walls of Trebizond", like the article "Walls of Constantinople".NeoRetro (talk) 06:05, 17 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
