TULIP GARDENS & KARAMAN & TASKALE GRANARIES
We start our trip by picking up our valued guests, from our designated meeting points at 24:00 at night. After our breakfast break in Karaman in the morning, we first visit the Tulip Gardens. We witness the visual feast along the way and reach the colorful tulips. Orange, pink, blue and others... We take a break to take photos in this endless, colorful field, and then we start our trip with a city tour of Karaman, where we will encounter dozens of artifacts that have survived from the Karamanoğlu Principality. After visiting the Çeşmeli Church, Yunus Emre Mosque, Aktekke Mosque, where Mevlana's mother Mümine Hatun is buried, Hatuniye Madrasa and Karaman Castle, we visit the Karamanlı mansion Tartan House, one of the beautiful examples of Anatolian Turkish domestic architecture, and give free time. Then we meet our vehicle and go to İncesu Cave. After visiting this beautiful cave, with its stalactites and stalagmites and witches' cauldrons, a thousand-meter section of which is open to tourism, we head towards Taşkale, where there are hundreds of grain warehouses built by carving giant rock blocks. The grain warehouses, which are still used by the local people, date back to the Early Christian period. Among the warehouses, there is also a mosque (Taş Mosque), which was previously used as a church. Then, we go to Manazan Caves, where cave settlements of the Early Christian period are located. After our tour in the caves, we start our return journey to Antalya and say goodbye to meet on another trip.
