Chronicles of Konya
Konya, the capital of the Karaman Region, was founded by the Seljuk Turks in the 12th century. The city's rich history is reflected in its well-preserved Ottoman-era architecture, including the famous Mevlana Museum, which honours the legacy of the 13th-century Sufi poet Rumi. Konya's cultural identity is deeply rooted in its Islamic heritage, with many mosques and mausoleums scattered throughout the city. The city's modern face is shaped by its growing tech industry and student population, with a lively atmosphere in the student quarter of Karatay. In recent years, Konya has become a hub for cultural events, with the annual Sufi Whirling Dervishes Festival attracting visitors from around the world.
