Sadeddin Hani

About 20km/12.5mi northeast of Konya stands the magnificent caravanserai of Sadeddin Köpek (Zazadin Hani) which was built between 1235 and 1236. To the left on the wide southern side, alongside the imposing marble and limestone court entrance, stands the hall with a tall narrow nave, six transepts and a ruined dome. Thirteen towers secure the complex's long courtyard. A staircase leads to the mosque above the entrance. Unlike the main entrance the winter hall is decorated.
