Nobody comes to Derepazarı looking for a big plan, because there isn't one to find. You walk the narrow roads winding between tea fields, sit in the square and watch a few people pass, then order the same tea again. Anyone in a hurry feels out of place here — everyone else moves at their own pace. Good news if you've got a die in your pocket: whatever face comes up, there's no wrong choice in a district this unhurried.
