Kadirga is one of the largest festivals that takes place in Turkey. The event is held at the Tonya Yayla (plateau) in Trabzon – a large treeless mountaintop area.

The Yayla traditional was brought to Turkey by the Turks from Central Asia. Nomadic herdsmen traditionally moved their herding locations depending on the season. The yYayla is used in summer to escape the summer heat while the Kışla is a location with a warmer climate which is used during the winter.

Non nomadic Turks today still visit the Yayla to escape the summer heat and hold festivities.
