Itinerary
-
Explore the Highlights of Konya
- Meet the tour guide, who will pick you up from your hotel/airport in Konya, proceed to Mevlana Jalaluddin Rumi Tomb, and visit the famous Mevlana and Dervishes cultural center- Dervish Lodge and the Madrasah, which was formerly used to teach Quran to children and local people.
- Walk to Sems-i Tebrizi Tomb. After visiting the museum, you will have lunch in a local restaurant.
- Visit the Alaeddin Mosque, one of the most interesting examples of Turkish architecture with wooden columns that carry the entire building. A graveyard for the Sultans is located in the courtyard of this mosque.
- Go to the Ince Minareli Medrese (theological school) with its amazing portal gate, one of the best examples in Turkey.
- Drive to the village of Sille, which lies just outside the city of Konya and can easily be reached by public transit (city bus or minibus). It’s a quaint town full of old homes, Turkish baths, ruinous cave homes, old churches, graveyards, and bridges, centred on a creek that keeps the town green amidst the dry, barren rock of the surrounding countryside.
