About Konya
Konya is one of the most historically and spiritually significant cities in Turkey — a city of 2.3 million inhabitants on the Central Anatolian plateau, the former capital of the Seljuk Sultanate of Rum (the most powerful Seljuk Turkish state of the 12th–13th centuries) and the city most associated with Mevlâna Jalâluddîn Rumi (1207–1273), the Persian Sufi mystic and poet whose Masnavi (the most important work of Persian poetry after the Shahnameh) and whose founding of the Mevlevi Order (the 'Whirling Dervishes') made him one of the most widely read poets in the world. The Mevlâna Müzesi (the Mausoleum and Museum of Rumi, the most visited museum in Turkey after the Topkapı Palace and the Sultanahmet mosque complex) is the spiritual heart of the city.
Konya's Seljuk heritage — the Karatay Medresesi (1251, with the finest medieval Anatolian tilework in Turkey, its interior dome of turquoise and dark blue geometric tiles one of the most beautiful interiors in Islamic architecture), the İnce Minareli Medresesi (the Slender Minaret Medresesi, 1265, now the Stone and Wood Works Museum, its carved portal the finest example of Anatolian Seljuk stone carving), the Alaeddin Mosque (on the Alaeddin Hill, the oldest standing mosque in Konya, begun 1116) and the numerous hans, türbes and caravanserais of the Seljuk period give Konya an architectural heritage of the very highest quality. The nearby Neolithic site of Çatalhöyük (50km southeast of Konya, the world's oldest known urban settlement, c.7500–5700 BCE, UNESCO World Heritage) gives the Konya region a prehistoric significance of global importance.
