Kayseri is the most important city in central Anatolia and the economic powerhouse of the region — a city of 1.4 million inhabitants at the foot of Mount Erciyes (the dominant volcanic peak of central Anatolia, 3,916 metres) in Kayseri province, whose extraordinary combination of Seljuk heritage (the finest concentration of Seljuk monuments outside Konya, with the Döner Kümbet, the Huand Hatun complex and the Seljuk Citadel), industrial success (Kayseri's furniture industry supplies 40% of Turkish domestic production, earning it the title 'Anatolian Tiger') and role as the principal gateway city to Cappadocia give it a character both commercially dynamic and historically rich. Kayseri is built on the ancient city of Caesarea Mazaca, capital of the ancient kingdom of Cappadocia, one of the most important cities of Roman Anatolia.
Kayseri's Seljuk monuments are the finest in the region after Konya — the Döner Kümbet (the Rotating Tomb, c.1276, a cylindrical stone tower mausoleum of exceptional sculptural quality, its relief carvings of trees of life and figures among the finest examples of Anatolian Seljuk funerary art), the Huand Hatun Complex (1237, the most complete Seljuk külliye in Kayseri, built by the wife of Seljuk Sultan Alaeddin Keykubad, with mosque, medrese, hamam and mausoleum), the Sultan Han Caravanserai (40km west, the largest Seljuk caravanserai in Turkey, 1229) and the Kayseri Citadel (volcanic black basalt walls of Byzantine origin, substantially rebuilt by the Seljuks) give the city a medieval Islamic heritage of the very highest quality. The city's renowned pastırma (the air-dried cured beef, heavily spiced with çemen paste, the most celebrated product of Kayseri and the finest example of Turkish charcuterie) and sucuk (spiced beef sausage) give it a gastronomic identity unique in Anatolia.
Döner Kümbet and Seljuk Heritage — Finest After Konya: Kayseri's Seljuk monuments — the Döner Kümbet (c.1276, the finest cylindrical tomb tower in Anatolia, its relief carvings exceptional), the Huand Hatun külliye (1237, the most complete Seljuk complex in the city) and the Sultan Han Caravanserai (1229, 40km west, the largest Seljuk han in Turkey) — give Kayseri a medieval Islamic architectural heritage second only to Konya in the Anatolian Seljuk canon.
Gateway to Cappadocia and Mount Erciyes Ski Resort: Kayseri is the closest major city and principal rail gateway to the Cappadocia fairy chimneys (Göreme 74km west) and the home of Turkey's finest high-altitude ski resort — Mount Erciyes (3,916m, 29km from the city, 45km of piste, December–April, recently upgraded with modern European-standard ski infrastructure including a gondola to 3,100m).
Shortest Transfer — 6km, Airport Adjacent to City: At 6km and approximately 8 minutes, Kayseri Airport (Erkilet International Airport) is one of the closest airports to its city centre in Turkey — the transfer is essentially from the city boundary to the historic centre or the Seljuk monuments.
