Its story
The caravanserai was commissioned in 1238 on the Konya–Sinop caravan route by Mahperi Hatun, wife of Alâeddin Keykubad I and mother of Gıyaseddin Keyhüsrev II. The building, consisting of an open summer courtyard and a covered winter section, is notable for its muqarnas portal and buttressed walls. Restored by the Directorate of Foundations in 2005–2006, part of the building is now run as a food and drink venue.
