Its interior is most remarkable, with a wooden finish and eye-catching tiles that delight all visitors, making it a unique monument to see in Konya.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to the breathtaking views, Mount Alaeddin consists of a park with numerous archaeological remains, which add to the historical and cultural heritage of Alaeddin, where the various tombs of important historical figures of Konya and Turkey are also of particular interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-the-kultur-park\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3-The-Kultur-Park\"><\/span>3. The K\u00fcltur Park<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides Mount Alaeddin, there are other spots where the natural beauty of this Turkish city shines and among them is the K\u00fcltur Park, a huge park that is very close to Mount Alaeddin, so it is definitely something worth seeing in Konya.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Filled with lush greenery, long avenues and several lakes, the impressive K\u00fcltur Park is an ideal place to rest after a long walk through the streets of Konya, and to take some beautiful photos in an enviable natural setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s in perfect condition, which is why the park receives so many visitors. It is also home to swans that bring the place to life, as well as a beautiful large mosque that occupies a large part of the park. It&#8217;s definitely a must-see place to visit in Konya if you want to enjoy a relaxed atmosphere, and it&#8217;s especially worth a visit at night when fountain shows are performed here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-the-historical-madrasas-of-konya\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4-The-historical-madrasas-of-Konya\"><\/span>4.

These are none other than the madrasas, ancient buildings that used to be centres of study and are now must-see buildings in Konya.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first that comes to mind is the In\u00e7e Minare Madrasa, very close to the Kultur Park and therefore to Mount Alaeddin. Erected approximately 8 centuries ago, it is characterised by the impressive portal that welcomes visitors. Today it houses the Museum of Stone and Woodwork, as well as an impressive collection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another of the madrasas to see in Konya is the Karatay Madrasa, just a few minutes from In\u00e7e Minare. It&#8217;s truly impressive, with a striking stature and the stones that make up much of the main construction elements. Finally, you can also visit the Sircali Madrasa, which is located in the alleys of the old town and, like the two previous ones, dates from the 13th century. It is truly impressive for its interior garden and the two floors that make it up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-the-souk-of-konya\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5-The-Souk-of-Konya\"><\/span>5. The Souk of Konya<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Last but not least, there are some unique markets to see in Konya, far to the west of Mevlana and close to the Kapu Mosque, which dates back to 1658. Next to the mosque are the various spaces that make up Konya&#8217;s souk, mainly old buildings that now house the busy market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Visiting this market is a real experience, with endless corridors forming a labyrinthine route of successive stalls, where all manner of goods are traded. One of the souk&#8217;s main attractions is the Kadinlar Bazaar, the perfect place to enjoy the essence of these typical markets in Konya.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-to-see-in-konya-and-its-surroundings\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What-to-see-in-Konya-and-its-surroundings\"><\/span>What to see in Konya and its surroundings<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1008\" height=\"756\" data-attachment-id=\"29344\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/turkey\/things-to-do-konya\/attachment\/trip-to-konya\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/trip-to-Konya.jpeg?fit=1008%2C756&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1008,756\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"trip-to-Konya\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/trip-to-Konya.jpeg?fit=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/trip-to-Konya.jpeg?fit=1008%2C756&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/trip-to-Konya.jpeg?resize=1008%2C756&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"trip to Konya\" class=\"wp-image-29344\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/trip-to-Konya.jpeg?w=1008&amp;ssl=1 1008w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/trip-to-Konya.jpeg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/trip-to-Konya.jpeg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1008px) 100vw, 1008px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Surrounding landscapes to see in Konya @unsplash<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-sille-a-unique-village-to-see-near-konya\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sille-a-unique-village-to-see-near-Konya\"><\/span>Sille, a unique village to see near Konya<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A few kilometres from enigmatic Konya is a beautiful village that has the makings of one of the most visited towns in the area. It is famous for its caves that are carved into the stone and the Greek influence that permeates the architecture of the place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is known to some as little Cappadocia and is a town steeped in history. Once the monumental Church of St Helena, it was built by Empress Helena, who decided to build a church entirely of stone. It is a landmark, crowning the main hill of Sille, from where the whole village can be seen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The church now houses a museum which is well worth a visit on your trip to Sille. In addition to the church, there are several charming traditional stalls in the village. To get to Sille simply take one of the public buses, but you can also take a taxi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Konya is an enigmatic city, full of charming corners and a historical and social importance that makes it a must-see destination in Turkey. To make sure you don&#8217;t miss out on any of the must-see sights in Konya, we&#8217;ve put together a few tips on what to see on your visit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To start your tour of the city, the best thing to do is to go first to the Mevlana Museum and then to Mount Alaeddin to admire the whole city from above. After that, you must visit the various historic madrasas in the old town and head to the souk. The last stop on your visit is the Kultur Park, where you can relax after a busy sightseeing tour of Konya.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-where-to-stay-in-konya\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Where-to-stay-in-Konya\"><\/span>Where to stay in Konya?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes planning everything that goes into a trip can be a bit tiring, so to make your stay much more enjoyable, we&#8217;ve put together a list of some accommodation for your days in Konya:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Araf Hotel:<\/strong> A charming hotel, with a raucous design and colourful decor, that has everything you&#8217;d want for a great stay.
