Yörük Village
13 km away from Safranbolu, this museum-like village
can only be reached by car or taxi. The village is under protection and the houses and konaks (mansions) are all well preserved. The village was founded byan Oğuz Turk tribe, and its oldest wooden house is 450 years old while its newest one is still 90 years old. The houses' inner decorations and ceiling embellishments are as stunning as their façades. The deer horns hanging from the eaves are considered lucky. The Kaymakçıoğlu and Sipahiler mansions, Ahşap Cami (Wooden Mosque) and the Çamaşırhane (Laundry), restored as an art gallery, are among the sites of
interest. You may have difficulty in choosing what to eat among the delicious varieties of gözleme and baklava.
Don't forget to purchase the local food exhibited at
the exit of the village. The nearest place for accommodation is the restored mansions in Safranbolu. Yoruk Village
