Agri, a provincial capital on a 1,650 meter high plateau, takes its name from the mountain which looms over it. The pleasant Balik (Fish) lake to the northeast, not surprisingly has plenty of fish restaurants serving local delicacies. Thermal springs bubble up all over the area. For those who want hardy outdoor events, a visit the Bubi Dagi Ski Center, 20 km southwest of Agri, will provide a few days of snow sports.
