Sultanhanı Kervansarayı is considered one of the best-preserved „inns“ for caravans. The light fortifications of this entire building provided security for buyers and the cost of their goods overnight.

Sultanhani is located along the D300 main road connecting Aksaray and Konya. The city itself is not large, so finding the only monument here is not a problem at all. There is a large car park in front of the caravan inn and the first massive wall will be the first to welcome you
