zengibar kalesi

It is a historical place to be seen and protected from the Byzantine at an altitude of 1900. Konya / Bozkir / Lights Town

The columns inside the Konya Aladdin Mosque were brought from this ancient city.

Zengibar castle is 16 km before the steppe on the Konya steppe road, right under the sign of the village of pilgrims and lights, it is defined as the Zengibar castle. It will be better for you to ask as soon as you enter the village in order not to be confused due to the absence of signs in the village. otherwise you will have to walk around 100 200 m. When it comes to the castle, the walls of the pen are 4 km and the ancient city is quite large.If you come to this ancient city with a unique view where you will get the fresh air of the steppe, you will definitely have to stop by at least 2 hours. Take water and food with you, there is no market above.

2000 years of history. However, it is an ancient city that has been plundered. His name is Isaura Nova in ancient records. In today's Bozkır district center, there was the ancient city of Isaura Vesta, also known as Isaura. There is nothing left from that ancient city today. History needs to be preserved. This is our history too. Go see, navigate. This place needs to be protected. I think many details will be revealed in archaeological excavations.
