Its story

The village rooms in the village of Sarıçiçek are buildings of similar size built 40–50 meters apart. According to Go Türkiye, inside the rooms elements such as built-in sofas (sedir), ceilings, cupboards, hearths and coffee niches have been preserved with their original decoration. In the woodwork, mainly of Scots pine, a Baroque–Rococo influence is seen in curling branches and schematic plant motifs. The village rooms were an important part of rural life as shared spaces where villagers hosted guests and gathered. The village also has a historic mosque and fountain; this village east of the center is an interesting stop for seeing Gümüşhane's wooden handicrafts on site.
