Konya
“Come, come, whoever you are.
Wanderer, worshiper, lover of leaving. It doesn’t matter.
Ours is not a caravan of despair.
Come, even if you have broken your vows a thousand times.
Come, yet again , come , come.”
The heart of Anatolia, Konya is home of the owner of these words, Jelaluddin Rumi; one of the greatest representatives of tolerance and humility.
This city that has rich history, culture, natural beauties; hosted many important civilizations. This city, which its story began in prehistoric times, has the oldest and most developed Neolithic settlement center, Catalhoyuk.
Catalhoyuk is the place where the first agricultural activities are made in the World; common defense against wild animal attacks was made; first fire was used; is the first settled place. In other words, Konya is the city where a period of history ended and the other one started. In addition, Karahoyuk; Eflatunpinar Hittite Monument, which was built during the Hittites period and was accepted as the most important Hittite monument after Hattusa; Astra Ancient City; Ivriz Rock Monument; The ancient city of Kilistra, which resembles a small version of Cappadocia, is a few of the important historical centers in Konya.
Mevlana Tomb, Ince Minaret Madrasah, Karatay Madrasah, Selimiye Mosque and Alaeddin Mosque were the main points of interest in the city, which has important buildings belonging to Turkish-Islamic architecture.
This city, which has also stepped forward with its natural beauties, has Lake Meke, Karapinar Desert, Kızoren Sinkhole Lake, Yerkopru Waterfall and many hot springs and caves.
In this old city, where the concept of food culture first emerged, perhaps the first food known in history was cooked. Therefore, Konya cuisine has a very important place with this old history. The culinary culture that started in Catalhoyuk, formed in Seljuk palaces and matured with Mevlevi traditions, still maintains its originality.
