The first name of Yomra district is Durana. This name was given by the first settlers of the district. The district took its new name from the Yomra apple growing in it. Yomra Apple received its Geographical Indication Registration Certificate in 2021 as a result of the application made by Yomra Municipality. With the Metropolitan Law, village legal entities of Yomra district have ended and it has 25 neighborhoods. Town municipalities such as Oymalıtepe and Kaşüstü were closed by law even though their population was over 2 thousand. The district is 10 km away from the center of Trabzon and 7 km away from the airport and Karadeniz Technical University. The coastal road passing through the north of the district prevents traffic from concentrating in the district centre. Thus, the district has become comfortable in terms of traffic.
