Efforts to promote and preserve the cultural and culinary heritage of Çorum have been highlighted through various regional initiatives.

In Bodrum, a tourism facility organized a “Çorum Flavor Festival” to showcase the region’s culinary traditions and Hittite heritage to international and domestic tourists. The event aimed to position Çorum as a global gastronomy destination by introducing local flavors to thousands of guests.

Simultaneously, in Çorum, local officials and merchants participated in a grape harvest at the historic Eskiciler Sokak. Following recent restoration by the Çorum Municipality, the harvest served to celebrate local traditions and the city’s historical landmarks.
