Gümüşhacıköy

Gümüşhacıköy is the westernmost district of Amasya province. While its previous name was Hacıköy, its name was combined with Gümüş Nahiyesi and was called Gümüşhacıköy. The surface area of the district of Amasya province in the Black Sea Region is 819 square km. It is surrounded by Merzifon district in the east, Çorum in the south and west, and Samsun in the north. Located in the mountainous area in the northwest of Amasya province, the district's territory is surrounded by Tavşan Mountain in the northeast, Ereğli Mountain in the southwest, and İnegöl Mountain (1873) in the west. The peaks of Tavşan and Ereğli Mountains are outside the district borders. The central and eastern parts of the district are plains. Streams such as Gümüşsuyu Stream and Hamamözü Stream coming down from the mountains irrigate this plain area and then join Kızılırmak and Yeşilırmak outside the district borders.
