Its story
Eber Gölü is the largest lake within Afyonkarahisar's borders and wraps around the southwest side of Bolvadin. Fed by the Akarçay, the lake was once connected to Akşehir Gölü and in the Middle Ages was known as the Lake of the Forty Martyrs (Tessarakonta Martyron). Its extensive reed beds are an important habitat for birds; on the shore you can see traditional reed harvesting and small boats. Its deepest point is about 21 m.
