The first half of the 19th century was a period of the significant military, political, and international developments for the Eastern Mediterranean Region. The fact that a large part of this region was within the borders of the Ottoman Empire was also an aspect that increased the importance of the issue. The works of Russian travelers provide important information about this period of important political, social, international relations and military developments of the Ottoman Empire, and provide important impressions about the Arabian Peninsula, Egypt, Syria, Iraq, Palestine, the islands in the Eastern Mediterranean, as well as the Balkans and Anatolia. In this article, after an assessment of the Russian travelers' trips in the Eastern Mediterranean, as an example, the notes of Avraam Sergeevic Norov, who served as a government minister, titled "Puteshestvie K Semi Tserkvam" were examined. The travel book named “Puteshestvie K Semi Tserkvam, Upomyanutym V Apokalipsise” (Travel to Seven Churches of the Apocalypse), which was published in 1847 and is the source of this article, is a work written by Avraam Norov as a result of his journey to the holy lands, between 1835-1836. In this article, Norov's impressions of the Eastern Mediterranean and especially Antalya were examined in light of this work.
